Background
At a Council meeting on Tuesday, 20 September 2022 Council resolved to seek a funding variation to build two new buildings, rather than pursue the proposed Our Place project – this week the variation has been approved.
Council is delighted to be commencing concept development for the Swan Hill Art Gallery redevelopment and the Swan Hill Tourism and Cultural Hub – these projects will be suitably named, in the future.
This project page is specifically related to the Swan Hill Tourism and Cultural Hub - to be built at Pioneer Settlement.
The proposed single-storey tourism and cultural hub will be a new purpose built entry for Pioneer Settlement, Visitor Information Centre and Aboriginal Cultural space encompassing the redevelopment on Pental Island.
*All plans at Pioneer Settlement are subject to Heritage Victoria approval.
