The current exhibition has been showing for three weeks, and will remain for around three months. New expiations will be held on a rotating basis The current show centres on the 150th anniversary of the Town Hall. It has many interesting exhibits. You will notice that many artefacts, such as the Lord Mayor's Chair (1853) date from the era of the Great Australian Goldrush. The Ceremonial Mallet is an impressive piece of craftsmanship. There are also video displays and collections of postcards. In all, it is a very interesting exhibition, highlighting the era when the City of Melbourne when it was truly Marvellous.

This is a brilliant little boutique venue that attracts some great independent theatre and art exhibitions. The theatre space is craftily located in the basement down several flights of stairs giving an edgy, alternative vibe as you literally head underground into an intimate space where anything may await you. I saw Tony Kushner’s ‘Angels in America’ and the venue helped give the illusion you’d moved downstairs into another world. There are bar facilities in the downstairs area and a flashy restaurant upstairs at the main Flinders Lane entrance. Fortyfivedownstairs is a great staple in the Melbourne arts scene landscape. You should have no problem catching an event as there is usually always something on (independent theatre, music, or visual art exhibition).
