St Mary’s House of Welcome is a day centre that supports people experiencing socioeconomic disadvantage, homelessness and mental health issues. Located in Fitzroy, the original site was opened in 1960 by the Daughters of Charity. A redevelopment of the space was conducted in 2009 by Six Degrees Architects after a capital appeal. St Mary’s now features large dining and activity spaces along with the original building’s heritage-listed façade and stained-glass focus pieces.
Guided tours will run on Sunday from 10am to 4pm.
