The Western Sydney Parklands Arts and Cultural Accelerator was an innovative 10-day development lab involving artists and professionals from other fields that generated a set of concepts for arts and culture projects for the parklands.
Campbelltown City Council is planning for significant change in the Glenfield area, aligned with the NSW State Government’s Fit for the Future program, in anticipation of the area’s projected population growth. City People was sub-contracted by Environmental Partnership to contribute to the Glenfield Public Domain Plan at various phases, through a process of workshop design, interviews, presentation and place activation strategy.
During 2014-2016, Kim Spinks and Michael Cohen, now directors of City People, collaborated to bring their respective organisations Arts NSW and Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority into partnership on a significant community and cultural development project.
