The evolution of The Standard as a multi- purpose performance arts space is in essence a reclamation of its past history.
During the 80’s and 90’s the venue played host to a wide array of local and international bands and solo artists, including The Beastie Boys, D.I.G, INXS, Skunk Hour and The Lemonheads to name just a few.
For 15 years the Level 3 New York loft styled space sat dusty and dormant until it was finally rediscovered in 2010, and transformed into the Lo-Fi Collective, a low brow studio and art gallery which showcased weekly exhibitions from Australian and International low brow artists.
The next stage in the venues evolution encompasses the entire spectrum of creative pursuits, positioning The Standard as Australia’s premier mid-sized all purpose performance art space.
We are open Thursday – Sunday nights
