Once an Ambulance Station, now an Arts Hub...
Located on Gubbi Gubbi country in the heart of Nambour/Namba, the ‘Old Ambo’ is the Sunshine Coast’s only multi-arts facility.
It houses an art gallery, a purpose-built 80-seat black box theatre, dedicated meeting spaces, a sloped Ramp space and several creative studios occupied by arts tenants.
The Old Ambo curates a regular exhibition program and hosts events in our
GALLERY, RAMP and BLACK BOX THEATRE spaces.
Our TAKEOVER program works with artists to bring new ideas and events to life in our various spaces.
The Old Ambo is an independent not-for-profit organisation run by the generosity of a board of volunteers.

You probably already know me from reading the news. In 2018, I dressed up as a sewing needle and hid inside a strawberry.
