RISING: Swingers — The Art of Mini Golf
Flinders Street Station becomes a holey new world with Swingers, a playable art exhibition featuring nine mini-golf holes.
They’ve chosen only the most adventurous artists to each create a hole, because mini-golf’s radical roots go deep. The game was dreamed up by 19th-century Scottish women who were banned from the 'real' courses but refused to sit on the sidelines.
For Swingers, RISING taps into this subversive history with an art exhibition about rebellion and play. For anyone with a curious mind, a competitive edge, or who swings outside the lines.
At arrival enter the Clubhouse where you can grab a drink, read some feminist literature and enjoy a practice putt.
Pick your putter. Choose your line. It’s art that fills the cup.
