April 2024 Update

Council at its meeting held on 22 April 2024 endorsed the draft Public Art Policy (2024) for the purpose of public exhibition for a minimum period of 28 days.

Georges River Council’s Public Art Policy provides a framework for the acquisition, assessment, development, and management of public art in the Georges River area in accordance with community needs and industry best practice.

Council invites you to read the latest draft of this policy and submit your feedback using the form below.

Submissions close on 27 May 2024.

Background

Public art elevates the visual profile of our places and provides insight into our cultural life and community values. Georges River Council aspires for public art to be an everyday experience that contributes to the vibrancy of the local area’s public spaces and landscapes for the enjoyment of residents and visitors.

Council adopted the Georges River Council Public Art Policy on 20 April 2020 (CCL016-20). The Policy applies to ephemeral, temporary and permanent art of any medium that is located, performed, or staged in public places in the Georges River area either by Council or property developers.

The revised draft Public Art Policy includes changes that make the document easier to read and understand, in line with Council’s commitment to customer experience and accessibility. The revised draft also includes new content to ensure the Policy remains consistent with other recent policies, as well as providing an effective framework for engaging artists and community members to create meaningful public art outcomes, including appropriate consultation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People.

Council's Cultural Services Team is available to answer any questions on the Public Art Policy and can be contacted on 9330 6444.
