Fabrik’s Redevelopment

The exciting redevelopment is complete and Fabrik has reopened as a heritage-listed arts and cultural hub in Lobethal.

The renovated spaces are home to purpose-built galleries, workshop spaces, artist studios and accommodation for an artist in residence. The newly built pavilion building features a retail store with carefully curated artisan-made goods and is also a place to host events.

Throughout the entire space, there are museum displays that showcase the textile roots and Onkaparinga Woollen Mill history.

Fabrik’s vision is to connect with contemporary art practice, domestic makers, First Nations cultural practices and international traditional textile production, while exploring textile sustainability, reuse and recycling to write the next chapter for this beautiful site.

The Fabrik dream is about bringing the community together through creativity, supporting artists to develop their creative practice into a viable business, and having a fully accessible place for visitors to be able to enjoy the beautiful Adelaide Hills.

Join us and be part of the next chapter at Fabrik Arts + Heritage.
