Current Public Art Opportunities

Council has recently adopted a Public Art Policy. The Public Art Policy is a statement of support and encouragement for the development of public art and public art opportunities within the Municipality.

The following values are reflected within the Public Art Policy in relation to the development of public art and public art opportunities.

The development of public art and public art opportunities shall endeavour to:

• reflect Council’s values of cultural diversity, safety, amenity and equity of access
• enhance local identity, enrich residents lives and create a sense of place
• incorporate the principles of Community Cultural Development including the provision of opportunities for community involvement and education
• honour the unique heritage of the area including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture
• provide opportunities for the development of artists skills and experience as well as value the role of artists to present new ideas and concepts relating to contemporary life.
