696 is a low commission based, free rental space, shop/indoor-outdoor gallery based in Brunswick, Melbourne Vic. Keen on supporting local, national and international talent and just cool shit in general.
696 opened on the 1st of April 2007 to provide a non-arrogant approachable space for emerging and established artists. With an eclectic goal, now synonymous with 696, all mediums, levels of talent and training are acknowledged – Tapping into the diverse reservoir of new Australian talent.
The shop front offers a diverse range of products.

696’s exhibition spaces consist of an intimate second room branching off from the shop front that hosts fortnightly shows throughout the year.
And an Organic outdoor gallery space open November to April for one night only events and exhibitions.
696 is a great resource and platform for artists and creative’s alike to network and build strong working relationships with industry professionals, as well as other artists.
