About this video:
To celebrate Ironlak's partnership with Carbon Festival we've organised a spruce up of Chinatown's iconic Croft Alley. To kick things off SOFLES flew to Melbourne for 16 hours and spent most of his day taking out a massive chunk of the alley.
From 5pm on tomorrow night (Sat 22 March), The Croft Institute will open its doors to mark the occasion as The Ironlak Croft Alley Party. We invite everyone to come down and check out new work by some of the country's best graffiti artists. The Ironlak Croft Alley Party is open to the public. See you there.
Stay tuned for the full recap video and final photos, dropping next week.
