Key Dates

In July and August 2025, the Esperance community will be invited to attend a series of community workshops to inform the next stages of this exciting project. Feedback from these facilitated sessions will inform the Public Art Strategy, Artistic Brief(s), and artworks themselves through a co-designed approach.

These 2 hour facilitated workshops will explore community aspirations for the EST project further in the following ways – notably in the following 3 areas:

1. Scale – what is the community’s aspiration as to the scale and prestige of this project? Is the intention for this project to deliver globally significant public art outcomes, or would the community prefer something lower-key and more regionally focused?
2. Locations – does the community have any specific ideas regarding locations for the trail artworks? How big should the trail be? If large, is it intended the trail is travelled by vehicle?
3. Artists – who should have the opportunity to be part of this project? Should the artists be local/national/international? Should the artists be Wudjari people exclusively, or should there be a quota for Wudjari artists as part of the project? If artists are not from the local area, what is the role of local artists in the project?

During the Define phase surveys will also be distributed to the local community for those that cannot make an in-person workshop.
