    t'tk Office of NSW-- Environment GOVERNMENT & Heritage ED18/314 018/11242 The Hon Paul Green MLC Committee Chair Portfolio Committee No 6 - Planning and Environment Parliament House Macquarie Street SYDNEY NSW 2000 By email: [email protected] Dear Mr Green Thank you for your letter about the inquiry into the music and arts economy in NSW. I appreciate the opportunity to provide a submission on behalf of the Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH). I attach a list of music and arts venues listed on the State Heritage Register (SHR) under the Heritage Act 1977. It includes cafes, restaurants, bars, gallery spaces and live music venues. This list is indicative only and is based on current use information recorded in the OEH's statutory heritage database, which does not always accurately reflect the various iterations and mixed uses of SHR items. The list shows venues listed on the SHR only. Venues operating out of heritage-listed premises protected under local environmental plans at the local government level are not included. OEH does not collect or hold data that would allow it to report on the number of music and arts venues that have been 'lost' over the past 20 years. The Basement operates from the modern commercial building at 7 Macquarie Place Sydney. This property is not listed on the SHR and therefore is not protected under the Heritage Act. I note the committee's interest in heritage listing or an equivalent statutory mechanism to protect iconic music venues in NSW, and specifically to prevent their closure.

  • Theatre, Junee, New South Wales. Ross Thorne, Local Shire
    Document title: Problems of heritage assessment: A case study of the Athe- nium (sic) Theatre, Junee, New South Wales. Author/s: Ross Thorne, Summary / abstract: Local shire and municipal councils frequently develop dreams of a facility or development that seems to preclude rational thought or assessment. This paper describes a few that came to light through public official inquiries into local councils but, upon being commissioned to write a heritage assessment of a picture theatre in a country town the author found that its council also had a dream. When the assessment was com- pleted and the New South Wales Heritage Office decided to heritage list the theatre, “all hell broke loose”. The paper re- views the tactics of the town’s local council that did not wish the theatre to be retained for community use, although the town had no similar space for the stage, cinema and social events. It describes the content of the heritage assessment and the reaction to it. Quotations are provided from the local newspaper and letters of objection. Key words: Heritage significance; Local government; Heritage assess- ment; Cinema heritage. Illustrations: By the author of the Athenium Theatre, and from historical sources. Original publication date: 2006 Original publication source: People and Physical Environment Research, 58-60, pp.92-122 Complete / extract: Complete paper with references.

    Document title: “Distributing Popular [Movie Film] Culture by Rail: The case of the decade of the 1950s in New South Wales.” (See also note below, for another title on the subject.) Author/s: Ross Thorne. Summary / abstract: Film-hire documents from 1950 to 1968, discovered at the Strand Theatre, Canowindra, NSW, some 4,500 despatch notices, advance booking lists, telegrams, etc., were processed to form a database for those of the decade of the 1950s. From this database it became obvious that virtually all films were delivered to, and sent from the Canowindra cinema by rail. It was not that all the films came from and were sent back to the distributors in Sydney, around half of them arrived from another town in New South Wales, and were sent off to another town in the state. Calculations are included in the paper that provide an idea of how many film deliveries were made each year across New South Wales by the railway network before many of its main and branch lines were closed. Key words: Cinema history; Railway history; Film distribution. Illustrations: Examples of film-hire and associated documents found in the projection box of the former Strand Theatre, Canowin- dra, NSW, thirty years after closure of the cinema.
