West Wimmera Yarriambiack Shire Buloke Shire Hindmarsh Shire West Wimmera Shire The Wimmera Mallee Town & Tourism strategy acknowledges the Koori Aboriginal language groups as the Traditional Custodians for Yarriambiack, Hindmarsh, Buloke and West Wimmera and surrounding Land and Waters. We pay our respects to Elders past and present and emerging, recognising their continued spiritual relationship and responsibilities for Country. The Wimmera Mallee Town & Tourism strategy. This Strategy also acknowledges and pays respect to Australian Indigenous Peoples who were separated from Clan and Country and also reside in Yarriambiack, Hindmarsh, Buloke and West Wimmera and surrounding communities. May these journeys of healing be acknowledged, respected, supported and become mutual objectives for all Australians. 1.

Regional Strategy Town & Tourism Strategy Local strategies proposed for locations across the region Town & Tourism Strategy Level 2 of this strategy responds to town and tourism park level opportunities, directions and learnings gathered through site visits and workshops. The Town & Tourism Strategy recommends projects to guide the revitalisation and tourism preparedness of 16 Towns and 24 Caravan Parks across four shires. These projects should be explored, prioritised, implemented and championed by the community, shires and Wimmera Mallee Tourism. Projects at each location are generally ordered according to their priority of implementation, or their necessary chronological order. While some are ‘quick wins’, it is generally encouraged that rigorous concept planning, professional advice and community consultation is seeked out and undertaken prior to undertaking projects. This report suggests indicative budgets (where possible) for each project at the town and tourism level. These are high level opinions of probable cost based on industry prices, and do not allow for community in kind input. As projects are developed, these budgets will be able to be further clarified. Note that Regional Strategy icons are placed onto Town and Caravan Park maps to indicate where regionwide projects might be implemented on the ground. They are also associated with written project recommendations to indicate where they might align with - and inform - projects recommended locally. 3. Regional Strategy Town & Tourism Strategy Regional Strategy Programs, Networks and Projects The programs, networks and projects listed here form a set of recommended approaches across the region. These are relevant at a region wide level as they contribute to reinforcing the regional character of the visitor experience. Whilst being considered and discussed at a regional level, these icons will be used Self Contained Regional throughout Level 2 of the document to indicate where they could be implemented Accommodation Touring Routes Town Centre & Identity Liveability locally.

  • Funding Information Tour for Artists and Communities Across the State
    MEDIA RELEASE Wednesday 24 April 2019 Funding information tour for artists and communities across the state Regional Arts Victoria, the Australia Council for the Arts and Creative Victoria, welcome Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR) this year, adding an important regional voice to a funding information tour across the state from Monday 20 May – Friday 24 May. The information sessions welcome enquiry from regional artists and arts organisations about what opportunities most suit the needs of their creative practice. The tour is also reciprocal in creating the opportunity for federal and state funding bodies being available and accessible to regional and remote areas of the state. “There is no better way to understand the needs of the artists and arts organisations than being present in these areas,” says Liz Zito, Regional Arts Victoria’s Director of Partnerships. Delivered in four different locations of the state, this year’s tour aims to connect ‘remote artists’ with information and opportunities that are offered through the Regional Arts Fund, and other federal and state funding bodies. The four locations are Portland, Kaniva, Warracknabeal and Maryborough. Impacts from this type of tour are four-fold. The organisations and funding become more accessible to communities. There is greater connection within communities between the people interested in funding. Relationships between the four organisations are better developed and informed by community, and the collegiate support grows between the four touring organisations. Sharing funding information in this manner is a strategic and coordinated approach to meeting the needs of regional and remote Victoria. “The partnership continues to be very successful.” Partnerships Coordinator, Edwina Guinness has instigated the tour and leads the delegates from the other funding bodies on the road trip.
