Formerly a secondhand bookshop at the front of the Ballaarat Mechanics’ Institute, Minerva’s Books & Ideas now sells books online and produces creative media about the lives of books and the ideas they ignite. We live and work on Wadawurrung Country and pay our respects to traditional owners and to elders past, present and emerging.
Interesting things always going up in our online store and also on Instagram and Facebook, links at the bottom of the page : )
