Activating Carlisle is an initiative delivered by The Place Agency to encourage businesses to activate vacant shops in Carlisle Street Balaclava. With up to $10,000 funding available for participating business operators, the program is designed to support small business to open up a new pop up store to sell, make, trade or create.
Whether it's a new business or an established operator, Activating Carlisle gets businesses up and trading as a popup i in a few weeks. And if it all works out, there is the potential to extend out to 12 months and ultimately a long-term lease.
