TBH Studio

31/08/2026

🌈✨ TBH Studio is an LGBTQIA+ friendly space. Not a Pride-month thing. Not a trend. Just the standard, every single day we've got the doors open. 🌈✨

We started this collective because three artists wanted a room where voices don't get silenced, where who you love, how you identify, or what your art looks like doesn't need to be softened to take up space here.

If you've been looking for somewhere in Ballarat that's actually safe, not just says it is this is us putting it in writing along with our biggest fans.

“Some businesses do more than just serve coffee or sell things. They hold space. They create belonging. They make people feel safe, especially those who are too often made to feel like they don’t belong anywhere. You have created a place built on kindness, inclusion, and respect. A place where everyone is welcome. Thank you 🌸” M.J (5 Stars)

Come find your people. We kept the good chairs for you. ❤️

👀✨ Real talk: the Fitting Room calendar has more space for artwork this year and maybe, just maybe this is the reminder you need to apply! 👀✨

September's down to 2 spots. October and November still have 3 each which sounds like plenty until you remember how fast a calendar fills once people start booking.

This is your sign to stop "meaning to" apply and just do it. Whether you've got a full body of work ready to go or an idea you've been sitting on, we want to hear from you.

📩 Applications open now, link in bio. 🗓️ Sep / Oct / Nov spots available
Don't let this one slide past you.

👔✨ To Be Honest, Father's Day deserves better than a tie he'll never wear. 👔✨
This year, give him something with actual thought behind it, an original piece for the wall, a print he'll look at every day, or a gift card so he can pick exactly what he wants himself.

🧘‍♀️✨ TBH, we built a room where the only job you have is to sit down and stop. 🧘‍♀️✨

"Take a Moment" is our latest installation occupying the Fitting Room, a guided meditation space, no rushing, no phone, no agenda. Just an invitation to notice the little things you usually walk straight past.

In a town that moves as fast as everywhere else does now, this is your permission slip to slow down for a few minutes. That's the whole piece. That's the whole point.
Come take a seat.

We’re closed today because frankly, we are EXHAUSTED and desperately need a day off to stare into the void and recover.

We’ll be back open Wednesday 26th at 10am, hopefully slightly more functional.

Thanks for understanding our very important commitment to doing absolutely nothing today. 🫡

To Be Honest, someone *cough cough* the one and only sat down and made this stitch by stitch, and you can actually feel it. 🤯✨

This handmade poncho was lovingly crocheted from start to finish, no factory line, no shortcuts, just hours of Holly's hands and a whole lot of patience. It's the kind of piece that gets better with wear, the kind you'll still be reaching for in five very cold Ballarat winters. ❄️

One-of-one. Once it's gone, there isn't another exactly like it. 🦄

📍 In-store now, TBH Studio, 57 Bridge Mall, Ballarat Central. Online too, link in bio.

TBH, this one makes people uncomfortable before they even read the title. 🤯

"Leave the Money on the Bedside Table" is an installation asking a question most of us avoid: what is an experience actually worth? 💸⏰

Not the dollar figure. The real value of your time, your presence, the things you give people that never show up on a receipt. Is it the same as what you'd charge for it? Less? More than you've ever let yourself believe?

Come stand in front of it and sit with the question for a minute. We're not going to pretend it has an easy answer. 💭

📍 On display now at TBH Studio, 57 Bridge Mall, Ballarat Central.

Small Wonders is exactly what it sounds like: small works, no size limits on the feeling behind them. A postcard-sized painting. A tiny sculpture. A collage that fits in your palm. If it's small and it's honest, it belongs here. 🚨👀✨

You don't need a body of work. You don't need a plan. You need one small thing you made and the nerve to show it to us. 💪

🗓️ Applications are open now, link in the bio. 🗓️

This one's for the artist who's been sitting on something small, wondering if it counts. It counts. ♥️♥️
