Baala Baajo means ‘come Sing, come Dance’ in
Nii Armah’s native ‘Ga’ language.
Nii Armah and Baala Baajo extend a warm welcome to everyone!
Brews Brothers Boutique Beers at Creative Arts Gala Show
At Brews Brothers, we reckon the only thing better than beer, is CHEAP, QUALITY beer. So that's what we're about.
At Brews Brothers, we'll help you brew 50 litres (i.e. six cartons of 330ml stubbies) of premium-grade beer using our commercial microbrewery equipment for up to 75 per cent less than you'd pay at the bottle-o. Brewing can take five minutes or just over an hour, depending on how much of the process you want to do.
Our brewing process is temperature-controlled and sterile, for consistently great results. Our beer is then cold-filtered and fully carbonated. We have more than 220 recipes that cover beer styles from around the world. We even do wheat-free beer, alcoholic ginger beer and cider!
No More Chemicals
Brews Brothers beers are all-natural and are preservative-free, so you can kiss those headbanging hangovers goodbye. Since the preservatives in bottle-shop beer are responsible for most of your hangover, after a big night on our beer you'll leap out of bed almost unscathed.
Taste It For Yourself
Don't take our word for any of this! Come down and taste our beer for yourself. We've always got a sample or two on tap. What could taste fresher than beer brewed from natural ingredients?
And check the News section for our next Open Day extravaganza or call Mike with your questions or bookings!
How To Find Us
We're at 31 Wellington Rd, Woolloongabba, five minutes from the CBD and one block from the Gabba cricket ground.
Turn right off Logan Rd (heading north) onto Wellington Rd and we're 100m up on the right, opposite Scotts Metals.
Bunnyconnellen Wines at Gala Art Awards
Creative Arts Spectacular is excited to have Bunnyconnellen Wines as our supplier for our Gala Award Night. You will be able to meet the growers of this fine wine and olive products, and take home some of their amazing produce.
Bunnyconnellen ('convivial pleasures') specialises in the growing and value-adding of premium quality olives for the production of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), table olives, olive related products and other gourmet foods. We also own a small vineyard which helps feed our passion for simple and easily drunk wines. We focus on quality and innovative foods grown or sourced locally by us. Our enduring guiding principle remains; that the better things in life are worth waiting for and accordingly should not be rushed. It's a philosophy you can taste in all our products including our 'Chalk Board' menu, which we prepare ourselves from family recipes and with the finest of ingredients.
Bunnyconnellen Olive Grove and Vineyard was established during 1996 and nestles amongst the gentle rolling hills of the Darling Downs close to Crow's Nest, and it's surrounding National Parks and dams. A relaxed, and pleasurable 45 minutes drive North from Toowoomba, along the New England Highway via Hampton and Crow's Nest, will see you to our front door.
The property's name can be traced back to it's origins in Ireland and translated from the Gaelic, means Connellen's thicket. The old dairy farm was originally the largest in the district having initially been settled in the late 1800s. It is now a less significant 252 acres, situated around our own valley, and planted to 12 acres of olive groves and vineyard.

LANDscapers at Creative Arts Spectacular
Public artists Nicole Voevodin-Cash and Elizabeth Woods have transferred a mapped city experience into a semiabstract inflatable garden that springs to life in a space, literally “landscaping” it, as if it were a living, growing organic form taking over the cityscape. Throughout 2009, LANDscapers will activate and animate significant public spaces across Brisbane, transforming each new site into a voluminous sculptural garden of floating, lucent vines. From July 18th to 21st, LANDscapers will spread its flowering tendrils through the stained glass window lit space of The Old Museum Building’s Studio 3 as part of the Creative Arts Spectacular. Come and be delighted, inspired, and intrigued by LANDscapers as it creeps through the studio and up its walls, inviting us to question the urban landscapes we inhabit and the natural world we’ve left outside.
Managed by artisan – idea:skill:product. For more information on LANDscapers, please go to www.artisan.org.au
LANDscapers has received financial assistance through Arts Queensland and from art+place, the Queensland Government’s Public Art Fund.
LANDscapers project was assisted through Arts Tasmania by the Minister for Environment, Parks, Heritage, and the Arts. Proudly sponsored by CAST Gallery, Tasmania.

Who we are and what we are doing
Creative Arts Spectacular came about when Kylie Farrelly, curator of Energy Art visited the Old Museum Building in the hope of holding an exhibition. With the help of a group of Wooloowin State School parents with backgrounds in Marketing, Music & Entertainment, Wedding Planning and Event Management, it was decided that in the year of Qld's 150 birthday and Year of Creativity in Education, that a much grander project would evolve.
An Emerging Artists exhibition was decided on, with a spectacular opening night art show, and a FREE family day to follow.
In conjuction with the opening of the Creative Arts Spectacular, Artisan will install and open its Q150 travelling installation, "Landscapers" into the adjoining exhibition space of the Old Museum Building. Patrons will be able to enjoy this incredible work in a completely unique environment. "Landscapers" was recently seen in the Qld State Library at the Ideas Festival, and will be touring other unique sites of Queensland.
Opening night tickets are $35 for gourmet food, wine and amazing entertainment soon to be announced..keep your eyes out for some really great acts.
Family day will be filled with workshops, activities and entertainment, especially for children, but fantastic for the whole family. Entry will be free, some workshops have a small materials cost only.
We are excited to bring this to you, and can only make it possible with the support of so many wonderful Brisbane people and business, all of which we will advertise and promote on this site.
