Cultural Development
Hurstville City is enriched by the diversity of our community in terms of multiculturalism, religion, age, outlook and ability. Hurstville City Council is committed to improving residents' quality of life and wellbeing by acknowledging and celebrating the contributions individuals and groups make to our community.
Council works closely with local community organisations to create opportunities for people to celebrate Hurstville City's rich and diverse culture. Our Cultural Development Officer provides local community groups and organisations with advice and support in:
- developing and presenting cultural activities
- sourcing and writing cultural grant applications
- finding and employing appropriate community artists
- managing and documenting cultural activities.
Cultural Event - Discovery Festival of Community Arts
In October each year, Council presents the Discovery Festival of Community Arts, which showcases local community arts initiatives and projects. Discovery Festival offers something for everyone to enjoy, ranging from toddlers through to older residents.
