Went to the RONE Art display on the 3rd floor of the Melbourne Flinders St Railway Station today - it was amazing. The 3rd floor had been abandoned for years, everything in there was bought in for the display, you would swear that people just walked out and left it
Worth a visit and not that expensive Anyone else been? https://rone.art/

Was the “sewing room” part of that exhibition? I found it really poignant as photographed on the website. Garment sewing was nearly a rite of passage for so many migrant women, and quite a few men as well.

Yep, the sewing room had my wife enthralled (non-migrant), she worked in the rag trade in the mid to late '70's in East St. Kilda, there was so much stuff in there she recognised. It was the first room we saw and we thought it had been used years ago and then abandoned, only to learn further on in the exhibition that EVERYTHING had been bought in just for the display, dust and cobwebs included

Was listening to Darren James on 3AW last Sunday morning raving about this… 1950s newspapers coving windows, old typewriters looking like workers just up and left 40yrs ago etc..
Apparently ends 23rd April?… I must try and get to it.. Do you need to book online or??

It's great, you will love it. There were people at the door with no tickets, they just took their money (EFTPOS) and let them in

Putting all that aside it was just great to be in the top of Flinders Street Station, a once in a lifetime experience and to actually stand in the Ballroom was just awesome (GovCo put a new roof on it a while ago as it collapsed with all the bird **** deteriorating it)

Was reading about this Rone bloke…
Started out as a street artist.. Graffiti? Seems to have an unbelievable mind to think up the detail in something like this?
