Those who like theatre or music in an intimate setting with plenty of character should check out Studio 188 when they’re in Ipswich.
Studio 188, formerly the art-deco Old Baptist Church, is Ipswich’s intimate performing arts development and live music venue right in the heart of the CBD. Boasting a flexible space, regular local live music events and arts development workshops, Studio 188 is an inclusive and creative space for everyone.
