Just back from another trip to outback Flinders Shire. This time to continue the community consultation process for the Arts and Cultural Plan, as well as to present the Public Art Policy and Public Art Development Plan to Council. Timing wasn’t great due to some layoffs in local rail employment but happy to report that the plans were received extremely well. Now there is real opportunity for the Shire to benefit from investment in public art which will enhance community identity, overall visual appeal and attractiveness to visitors. Good public art can and will help to make a difference. Thanks Flinders. More exciting times ahead.
