We're looking for community members to join the Arts Working Group.
The Wentworth Health Service Redevelopment project is now in the design stage.
The new facility will improve inpatient and community health services for the people of Wentworth and surrounding communities and will be built on the existing hospital site.
Following the development of the master plan and concept design with input from local stakeholders, the Wentworth Health Service Redevelopment has now commenced the next stage of project planning, exploring how arts can help deliver exciting, welcoming and dynamic spaces for patients, carers, staff and the community.
Beautiful artistic spaces can also help with wayfinding and ensure indoor and outdoor spaces complement health service delivery.
The Arts Working Group (AWG) is responsible for advocating the successful integration of arts for wellbeing, inclusive of heritage elements into the Wentworth Health Service Redevelopment project.
The Wentworth Health Service Redevelopment team, in partnership with Far West Local Health District, are working together to develop an arts and health strategy for the new health service. This is the first stage of a long-term commitment to arts and health initiatives for the Wentworth Health Service Redevelopment.
Are you creative, innovative and interested in history?
Expressions of interest are sought for representatives to join the AWG. Representatives working as part of the AWG will:
- collaborate as part of an integrated team;
- support the development and implementation of the arts and health strategy;
- provide recommendations for arts and health opportunities;
- identify possible partnerships for projects and commissions; and
- share and discuss arts and health strategies with colleagues to ensure the strategy responds to the interests and culture of our hospital community.
Successful applicants will initially be required to attend three meetings in early 2023 which will run for approximately 1.5 hours each.
