Enjoy feel good shopping at 12 x 12, a unique shop that is Melbourne's first permanent social enterprise precinct.

The retail space showcases 12 retailers, who all share the same ideals of philanthropy and social awareness. Visitors will find treasures ranging from vintage clothes, to vinyl records and cleaning products that have been produced in sustainable, ethical and environmentally friendly ways, with part of the profits given back to society.

The changing nature of the space means there will always be something new to discover – the shop gets its name from the fact that every 12 weeks another round of 12 new retailers move in.

The 12 retailers are chosen based on the season and shoppers can expect to be surprised with a mix of fashion brands, home wares and stationery.

12 x 12 is housed within Donkey Wheel House, the former Melbourne Tramway and Omnibus Company building, now heritage-listed and a hub for social and ethical enterprises.

Multiversical Exhibition

View this colourful community of over 70 figures created by children, with artist Leonie Rhodes.

In the July school holidays, children learnt traditional figurative sculpting techniques (as well as clever tricks) to produce their own fantastic sculpture of a person. Each child built their own character starting with a wood and wire armature, adding brightly coloured modern materials.

Here the work will be presented as part of a collaborative, integrated installation, with the figures placed in a pattern on top of a five-pronged Fibonacci spiral.

Multiversical draws from Leonie's studies at London's Chelsea School of Art and the New York Studio School.

Age: 5 to 12 years
