Small amounts of equipment (what you can easily carry on board youself) can be taken on the ferry. We find that the Woolwich ferry is the best place for boarding as there is place to unload a car and it is a flat run to board the ferry.
If you are unsure please contact Sydney Ferries directly. http://www.sydneyferries.info/ . Sydney ferries do reserve the right to refuse boarding, so it is best to check.
We may be able to help with the transportation of modest amounts of gear. Please contact us to discuss logistics jkee(@)placesandspaces.com.au.
If anyone would like to donate or loan as gear/equipment, we would be thrilled to hear from you jkee(@)placesandspaces.com.au.
WAREHOUSE 15
The warehouse is located on the Upper Island.
When performances take place there will usually be no seating. However audience members are encouraged to bring along picnic rugs.
If you have problems walking up stairs, or uphill, this venue may prove challenging. However, once at the venue, there are no access problems enterieng the building.
We may be able to assist some patrons. Please do contact us at least 48 hours before you wish to attend an event, so we can try to help.
The acoustic in this venue, in most cases would not lend itself to fine classical music.
