30.08.2018Working group established

Members of the Committee’s Arts and Culture Roundtable formed a working group called, Enabling creativity in Melbourne with the first meeting August 30, 2018. The group chaired by Nick Boulter, ARUP, is considering how Melbourne can continue to foster Arts and Culture in Melbourne. Various areas were highlighted for artists including the cost of studio space, the cost, and availability of display spaces and the need to create more international engagement. Outcomes from the groups last meeting include looking at how to create

• More studio spaces
• More exhibition spaces
• More international engagement

The group will reconvene later in the year to discuss how the above issues can be addressed in a pragmatic way. Should you wish to be involved in the Enabling Creativity in Melbourne working group please get in touch with Leanne Edwards.
