COFFINS AND CORPSES
Ex-convict Michael Gannon was a carpenter with an interesting specialty: making coffins. This led to him beginning work as an undertaker (a natural career progression, of course) in the rear of Gannon House. Today the building houses the Gannon House Gallery, which showcases incredible Australian contemporary and Indigenous art. The spot where he tended to the dead bodies is the La Renaissance Café. From coffins and corpses to canvases and croissants – that’s what we call a step up in the world.
