City Talks 2013: What creative life do you want for Sydney?
Voice your ideas for a creative Sydney to the people who'll make them happen.
Overview
It's a pretty sensational time to be a Sydneysider. Over the last few years, we've had the privilege of unearthing some brilliant new underground bars, hole-in-the-wall restaurants, festivals, exhibitions and street art. While many of these developments have grown out of a fresh entrepreneurial spirit, we've got to give mad props to our local councils for providing cultural pioneers with opportunities to pursue their dreams (e.g. through the introduction of new licensing laws).
Now, just weeks after Leichhardt mayor Darcy Byrne announced an ambitious proposal to reinvigorate Parramatta Road, the folks at City of Sydney Council are looking to open up a fresh conversation on Sydney's creative future. They're calling for cultural direction from every man, woman and child within reasonable distance of the Harbour Bridge, and kicking off the conversation with a forum around the topic 'What creative life do you want for Sydney?'. A free event running at the State Theatre on Wednesday, April 10, the forum will feature input from US 'community transformer' Carol Coletta as well as a panel featuring the who's who of Australia's cultural development sector.
If you're invested in this city's creative future, or if you're just keen to see what Lord Mayor Clover Moore actually looks like in person, then head over here to grab your tickets right now.
