MAILBOX 141 is an alternative public art space that opened in November 2006 to support artistic experimentation and exhibtion of new work.

Located at 141 Flinders Lane - near the corner of Russell Street in the heart of Melbourne’s arts precint - MAILBOX invites artists to create site specific work for a strip of restored antique mailboxes in the entrance foyer. Reminders of our urban heritage in the midst of the corporate streetscape, MAILBOX enlivens the imaginative space of the city. As part of the diverse network linking art schools, studo artists, artist-run initiatives and business, MAILBOX offers another possiblitiy for individual artists to inhabit public space in the city of Melbourne and contributes to an authentic and often unexpected cultural experience for viewers.

MAILBOX recieves no funding and operates in collaboration with 141-143 Flinders Lane.

Art work may be viewed from 7am – 7pm Monday to Friday, and 12 – 6pm on Saturdays.

Exhibitions change every two months.
