With the close of last week, and on the occasion of a panel discussion on the future of Sydney’s creative economy (12 June), the City of Sydney has announced a $20 million injection of funds.
Lord Mayor of Sydney, Clover Moore AO, said: ‘Our creative workforce increasingly can’t afford to live or work here.’
She continued, ‘There are no simple solutions, but our new cultural strategy will help direct efforts to retain what we have, rebuild what we’ve lost and reimagine an inspiring, diverse and thriving cultural life.’
