Our award-winning multi-purpose venue sits quietly in its bushland setting and has spaces of different sizes that can accommodate a range of activities and community events. Just 100 metres from the main road through the concourse puts you onto bush tracks and in touch with the local wildlife and traditional heritage. It’s a remarkable transformation and one of the reasons this space has earned its special place in the community.
The Centre was built in 2010 to provide thoughtful, useful spaces for community and cultural activities. The designers KIRK noted:
While formally abstract and demure the Centre makes provocative use of materials, which highlight it as a future landmark in the community. The building is fringed by sculptural blades of weathering steel, a material that responds to the corroded car bodies once found on site. These blades form a rippled screen to the street which reveals glimpses through the building when approached by vehicle.1
