The ROWY Lane Art Show is a outdoor photographic exhibition celebrating the people of the Gleadell Street Market. It features portraits of many of the market’s stallholders and staff, accompanied by brief comments about their connection with the market and the City of Yarra. The photographs were taken by local photographer Mike Reed.

ROWY Lane is a narrow pedestrian connection between Gleadell Street and Griffiths Street. The exhibition is intended to make the lane more welcoming, strengthen the connection between the Gleadell Street civic precinct and the Bridge Road activity centre, and recognise the people who have sustained the market over many years.

We hope the exhibition will be the first of further temporary art displays that enliven Gleadell Street and contribute to the continuing revitalisation of Bridge Road.
