Congratulations to one and all creating CONVERGE, Lismore’s Creative Enterprise Development Program, today officially launched by Mayor Steve Krieg in the Lismore CBD this morning 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

This innovative inner-city artist-in-residence program is designed to provide a collaborative space for local artists to develop and showcase their work. 

CONVERGE is revitalising 123 Woodlark Street, once a vacant building, bringing new life to the area. Eleven talented local artists have been selected to participate, each bringing their unique artistic vision to our city.

Every week, new businesses are opening in the CBD and with CONVERGE, the area will be even more colourful and bustling.

Stay tuned for @visitlismore updates on CONVERGE artists’ incredible projects and join us in celebrating the vibrant arts and culture scene of Lismore! 

The @lismorecitycouncil CONVERGE program is funded by the NSW Reconstruction Authority.
