Flash Forward is creating a connected network of laneways across Melbourne with their own stories, visuals and acoustic designs.

Showcasing Melbourne’s creative culture and unlocking the potential of some of the city’s lesser-known laneways, more than 80 creatives have been commissioned to create over 40 art installations and 40 albums.

For information on locations, completed laneways and participating artists visit the website.
