Wyndham council has adopted their 10 Year Art Plan for 2022-32.
Council said the important plan will guide its work over the next 10 years to ensure Wyndham continues to grow as a creative hub.
The Wyndham 10 Year Public Art Plan was produced following extensive research, consultation and global benchmarking to understand priorities and look for opportunities.
“Wyndham City aims to develop a world class public art program over the next 10 years, delivering dynamic and contemporary public art in a creative celebration of place, culture and environment to our diverse community,” Wyndham mayor Peter Maynard said.
“The Public Art Plan sets out and provides a 10-year projection regarding how public art programming will be delivered.
“To achieve our vision to develop a world class public art program we need a holistic approach through consultation, artist development, communication, education, engagement, research and evaluation.
“Our vision is to support and develop a public art collection of quality and regional significance.”
Council said public art plays an important part enhancing a city’s identity, contributes to cultural life and is central to the ongoing development of Wyndham as a vibrant, creative and engaged city.
Council’s Public Art Collection is made up of permanent public artworks located in public spaces, pop-up inflatable artworks and temporary projects.
The plan was developed with public art consultants T Projects.
