Spend a wintry Sunday afternoon with seriously good (and free) art and music.

Overview

Get your fix of free art and live music thanks to National Gallery of Victoria's Unplugged Live. The ultimate creative Sunday session takes over the NGV Ian Potter Centre in Fed Square, pairing the space's current visual trip to the '90s with an in-gallery performance. Hosted by singer-songwriter Jae Laffer, the July 23 event features Angie Hart and Kathy Temin.

If the former sounds familiar, that's because she was livening up the Aussie music scene two decades ago as the voice and face of Frente — and taking a trip down 'Accidentally Kelly Street' in the process. The latter also came to prominence during the '90s, working with synthetic fur to challenge both tastes and art conventions.

NGV Unplugged Live is free, but capacity is limited, so arriving early is recommended.
