    Arts and Culture Unnumbered Sparks: Janet Echelman, TED Sculpture Foreword Imagine a world without performing or visual arts. Imagine – no opera houses, no theatres or concert halls, no galleries or museums, no dance, music, theatre, collaborative arts or circus – and in an instant we appreciate the essential, colourful, emotive and inspiring place that creative pursuits hold in our daily life. Creating opportunities for arts to flourish is vital, and this includes realising inspiring venues which are cutting edge, beautiful, functional, sustainable, have the right balance of architecture, acoustics, theatrical and visual functionality and most importantly are magnets for artists and audiences, are enjoyable spaces and places, and allow the shows and exhibitions to go on. 4 Performing Arts Bendigo Art Gallery 5 Performing Arts Arts and Culture Performing and Visual Arts 03 08 – 87 88 – 105 Foreword Performing Musicians, Arts Artists, Sculptors and Festivals 106 – 139 140 – 143 144 Visual Arup Services Photography Arts Clients and Credits Collaborators Contents Foreword 3 Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall 46 Singapore South Bank Studio, Queensland Symphony Orchestra 50 Australia Performing Marina Bay Sands Theatres 52 Arts 8 Singapore Elisabeth Murdoch Hall Federation Concert Hall 56 Melbourne Recital Centre 10 Australia Australia Chatswood Civic Place 58 Sydney Opera House 14 Australia Australia Carriageworks 60 Glasshouse Arts, Conference and Australia Entertainment Centre 16 Australia Greening the Arts Portfolio 64 Australia Melbourne

    Victorian Heritage Database place details - 30/9/2021 COUNCIL CHAMBERS Location: 233-247 LITTLE COLLINS STREET MELBOURNE, MELBOURNE CITY Heritage Inventory (HI) Number: H7822-1753 Listing Authority: HI Heritage Inventory Citation STATEMENT OF CULTURAL HERITAGE SIGNIFICANCE: The Melbourne Town Hall was constructed between 1867 and 1872 on the site of the earlier Town Hall which had been designed by James Blackburn and completed in 1853. A competition was held for the new building between 1864 and 1866 and was won by Joseph Reed. The building included a public hall, administrative offices, Lord Mayor's rooms and Council Chamber. The portico was added in 1887-8 and was designed by Joseph Reed's firm at the time, Reed Henderson and Smart. The Administration Building was constructed in 1908-10 to accommodate the Council's growing administrative needs, and was the result of another competition. Grainger, Kennedy and Little won the competition and designed the interior, with the second prize won by JJ and EJ Clark who designed the The Melbourne Town Hall is of historic and social significance as the civic centre of Melbourne since 1867. It represents in its physical form the changing needs and aspirations of the citizens of Melbourne. Externally the building is of architectural importance as an early application of the French Second Empire style in Victoria as designed by prominent architect Joseph Reed. Internally, the hall and Collins Street entry foyer are of significance as an intact example of a major public space of the 1920s which retain original fittings and decoration. The Napier Waller murals in the hall are The organ is of technical or scientific significance as an intact and scarce example of 1920s British organ-building craftsmanship.

  • The Trades Hall Part of Our History
    The Trades Hall Part of Our History You aid them friends, with more than empty praise, Your contribution will assist to raise A people’s palace on yon vacant soil- A palace built and own’d by hardy sons of toil1 Image: State Library of Victoria Trades Hall, Corner of Lygon and Victoria Streets, Carlton (Photographed by John T. Collins in 1964) At a time when the nation’s biggest convenience store chain is being cast as ‘rorting wages of its workers’ it is worth noting that the history of one of the world’s earliest trade union buildings is in Carlton, on the fringe of the central city, originally solely financed and built by the workers to serve as a place for the labour movement. Melbourne building workers had successfully taken up an issue first raised by Sydney stonemasons for an Eight Hour Day. The skilled tradesmen, stonemasons, bricklayers, carpenters, joiners, plumbers, painters, slaters, quarrymen, coach builders, were Chartists or radicals who had emigrated from England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, who had settled in cheaper suburbs like Collingwood, Fitzroy, North Melbourne and Richmond, who considered themselves ‘the fraternity of labour’, ‘the working bees of society’, ‘the producing classes’ and ‘the pioneers of the colony’.2 3 Their leader’s names are recorded on an honour board on the main staircase of the present building including Charles Don, Thomas Vine, James Stephens, James Galloway and Benjamin Douglass. Their families were also involved as the original Eight Hours flag was hand stitched by Vine’s three daughters.

    Page 1 of 10 MARKETING AND EVENTS COMMITTEE Agenda Item 5.4 REPORT 8 May 2007 EVENTS REPORT – 1 NOVEMBER 2006 TO 28 FEBRUARY 2007 Division Commerce & Marketing Presenter Peter Stewart, Manager Events Melbourne Purpose 1. To inform the Marketing and Events Committee of the events conducted within the City of Melbourne between 1 November 2006 and 28 February 2007. Recommendation from Management 2. That the Marketing and Events Committee accepts the Events Report – 1 November 2006 to 28 February 2007. Comments 3. The events outlined in this report relate to those coordinated through the Events Melbourne Branch of the City of Melbourne. A small number of arts events are coordinated through the Arts & Culture Branch and are not within the scope of this report. Water Restrictions and Events 4. The City of Melbourne has initiated a number of proactive strategies to significantly reduce the water consumption and water usage during events as a result of the current state-wide water restrictions. 5. These strategies involve utilising alternative or modified water-filled traffic management treatments; minimising water usage during vending, food preparation and drinking water fountains; using concrete/sand-filled weights instead of water-filled weights in infrastructure weighting; and utilising Class A recycled water for portable toilet flushing rather than drinking water. 6. As a result of these strategies being implemented, recent events have significantly reduced the level of water usage during events, for example New Year’s Eve 2006 utilised 250,000 litres less water and Moomba Waterfest utilised 300,000 litres less water than in previous years.

    Melbourne’s Rockin’ Venues The Palais Theatre Most punters in Melbourne have had a Palais experience at least once. Maybe you saw The Rolling Stones in ’66, or went to Jesus Christ Superstar or The Andrew Durant Memorial Concert in the 70’s? Today it remains a grand old dame, still hosting iconic shows. Here is a cool link to its history: https://palaistheatre.com.au/venue/venue-history Armstrong Studios Basically, it was our Abbey Road. Whispering Jack was recorded here, and many other acts came to avail themselves of its world class facilities. (U2, Paul McCartney, Madonna, Bob Dylan, Split Enz, Crowded House and many more) Bill Armstrong started out in a terraced house in South Melbourne before moving operations to an old butter factory in Bank street. The work recorded here is a staggering list of Australian Rock & Entertainment. Wikipedia has the story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armstrong_Studios Festival Hall The “House of Stoush” in West Melbourne has hosted Wrestling, The Beatles, Boxing, Jethro Tull, Roller Derbies, Black Sabbath, Chuck Berry, The Bee Gees, Roy Orbison & hundreds more eclectic shows over its six-decade history.
