With its old-skool NY-loft industrial aesthetic, cradled beneath a saw-toothed roof and vaulted beams, the aerie is a collaborative and affordable creative space for artists, start-ups, film crews and interactive workshops.
With over 430 square metres of light-filled studio space, large common areas, short-term desk space/ hot desks and uncontended fast internet, the aerie is a unicorn in the inner city. It’s expansive, achingly cool, and collaborative as hell.
And it’s supported by a well-established arts community, a crew that cares about keeping the creative bent of the inner west alive and well. In this little slice of St Peters, an old history bleeds freely into a future of possibilities that are rich in potential.
OUR TEAM
Directors H Morgan-Harris and Ran Stanton have been involved in creative warehouse spaces for over 20 years. Directly involved at Mekanarky, a 35-strong artist-run space located in the old Streets Ice Cream factory in Turella, they went on to establish Tortuga Studios (in collaboration with Ed Horne) in 2008. the aerie is yet another poster-child for collaborative creative space: proudly independent and built by the community for the community.
