TGIF really has come a very long way in this burgeoning town of ours. Yeh, a few years ago you would have sufficed with some after work drinks at Friday's (naturally). Hey, you can't be blamed - it was considered a hot place to be.
Nowadays there are more options, beside the obvious list of cooler places to drink; there's a gallery above Mellino's that's giving Brisbane a Brooklyn style and everyone is sipping on cold beers, talking art and possibility.
This Friday you can thank Frankie magazine and local artist, designer and curator Mel Baxter for Nine Lives' latest show, Hand Drawn. This exhibition is all girl! A salutation to some of Australia and New Zealand's finest female illustrators. The line-up is more exciting than the shot list at Friday's too: Kelly Thompson, Kareena Zerefos, Sarah Larnach (of Ladyhawke artwork fame) and Fee Harding and Xiao. Get your paws on their lovely draw(ing)s.

About
FourThousand is a subcultural guide to Brisbane, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Brisbane writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FourThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
