The 2nd Annual Ossington Village Alleyway Party was a meeting of music, art and the community. Possibly the most casual, laid back festival we've been to this year, it was held between Ossington and Dovercourt. People were invited to "bring food, bring drinks, bring kids, bring friends, bring clothes to swap, bring a sense of fun community spirit, and bring feet that are ready to dance".
Main organisers, Fedora Upside-down [Michael Louis Johnson], outdid themselves by calling up a tonne of sets from 9 bands that played throughout the day. Local retailers Penny Arcade and Vintage 1 lent their store hangers, while those living in the neighbourhood along Foxley Street gave the use of their personal barbecues.
