Last year, East 9th Brewing received unprecedented support from over 50 of Australia’s hospo venues, liquor retailers, and their staff to raise more than $50,000 for Polished Man by painting a nail blue to help end violence against children. This year, the Doss Blockos Polished Man team is going one step further. The team has joined forces with Melbourne bar royalty, Jerome Borazio (of the famed St Jerome’s/Laneway Festival) and his team at Lickety Split (local staple Melbourne’s West) and Touche Hombre (in Melbourne’s CBD) to launch ‘Doss Closet’- the worlds first ‘op-shop bars’, where clothing proceeds are donated to Polished Man.
Inside Doss Closet, the walls are lined with quality second-hand clothes, (donated kindly by people from all over Melbourne) and blue wash lighting (as a nod to the Polished Man cause). Get down for the fun and games, the op-shopping and Doss Blockos (all for a great cause of course!)…
Doss Closet Footscray is located inside Lickety Split at 38-40 Moreland Street in Footscray, and Doss Closet CBD is located next to Touche Hombre at 233 Lonsdale Street, Melbourne.
