Explore Brisbane’s Vibrant Laneways
Whether you’re a local passing through the city to pick up a takeaway coffee from your favourite hole-in-the-wall, or a visitor to Brisbane exploring the CBD for the first time – discovering Brisbane’s hidden laneways is an essential addition to your urban wanderings.
Eagle Lane and Hutton Lane, City
Venture into the heart of Brisbane and discover outdoor galleries adorning laneway spaces as part of the World Science Festival Brisbane. Experience the intersection of science and art in both Eagle Lane and Hutton Lane, with artwork selected by local curator Jay Younger adorning both laneways. Drawing on inspiration from science in an urban setting, the project is based on the festival theme of ‘Rethink Science’. Brisbane City Council’s Vibrant Laneways program transforms previously overlooked spaces and invites visitors to explore Brisbane from a new angle.
