Dude, do you live in the East or Inner West? Do you find the idea of 'crossing the bridge' just a bit crazy? Well, you know, it takes a super zippy 15 minutes to get a train from Wynyard station direct to St Leos! The precinct is a tiny 4 minute walk from the station. It's all about #arttripping - going on an adventure to see something and feel something new. Do it. Explore this city. Get outta your hood. The North side is sexy, baby. Trust us, we're there with all our sexy creative friends. #artsexy #artonthenorthside @twtstleonards @spectrumnow #spectrumnow #TWTBLOCKPARTY (at TWT Creative Precinct by Brand X)
