Abstract:
The authors’ research attention is focused on the specifics of the Australian memorial practices dedicated to the World War I. The statement is substantiated that in the Australian context memorials and military monuments formed a special post-war and post-traumatic part of the visual memory of the first Australian global military conflict. The features of the Australian memorial concept are clarified, the social function of the monuments and their important role in the psychological overcoming of the trauma and bitter losses experienced are noted. The multifaceted aspects of visualization of the monumental memory of the World War I in Australia are analyzed. Monuments and memorials are an important part of Australia’s visual heritage. It is concluded that each Australian State has developed its own concept of memory, embodied in various types and nature of monuments. The main ones are analyzed in detail: Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne (1928–1934); Australian War Memorial in Canberra (1941); Sydney Cenotaph (1927-1929) and Anzac Memorial in Sydney (1934); Desert Mounted Corps Memorial in Western Australia (1932); Victoria Memorials: Avenue of Honour and Victory Arch in Ballarat (1917-1919), Australian Ex-Prisoners of War Memorial (2004), Great Ocean Road – the longest nationwide memorial (1919-1932); Hobart War Memorial in the Australian State of Tasmania (1925), as well as Villers-Bretonneux Australian National Memorial in France dedicated to French-Australian cooperation during the World War I (1938). The authors demonstrate an inseparable connection between the commemorative practices of Australia and the politics of national identity, explore the trends in the creation and development of memorial practices. It is noted that the overwhelming majority of memorial sites are based on the clearly expressed function of a place of memory, a place of mourning and commemoration. It was found that the representation of the memorial policy of the memory of Australia in the first post-war years was implemented at the beginning at the local level and was partially influenced by British memorial practices, transforming over time into a nationwide cultural resource.

Abstract:
Australian war memorials have changed over time to reflect community sentiments and altered expectations for how a memorial should look and what it should commemorate. The monolith or cenotaph popular after the Great War has given way to other forms of contemporary memorialisation including civic, counter or anti-memorials or monuments. Contemporary memorials and monuments now also attempt to capture the voices of marginalised groups affected by trauma or conflict. In contrast, Great War memorials were often exclusionary, sexist and driven by a nation building agenda. Both the visibility and contestability of how a country such as Australia pursues public commemoration offers rich insights into the increasingly widespread efforts to construct an inclusive identity which moves beyond the cult of the warrior and the positioning of war as central to the life of the nation.

Abstract:
This article explores how war memorials engage with the contested nature of public sculpture and commemoration across historical, political, aesthetic and social contexts. It opens with an analysis of the Australian commemorative landscape and the proliferation of Great War Memorials constructed after 1918 and their ‘war imagining’ that positioned it as a national coming of age. The impact of foundational memorial design is explored through a number of memorials and monuments which have used traditional symbolism synonymous with the conservative ideological and aesthetic framework adopted during the inter-war years. The authors then analyse international developments over the same period, including Great War memorials in Europe, to determine the extent of their impact on Australian memorial and monument design. This analysis is juxtaposed with contemporary memorial design which gradually echoed increasing disillusionment with war and the adoption of abstract designs which moved away from a didactic presentation of information to memorials and monuments which encouraged the viewer’s interpretation. The increase of anti- or counter-war memorials is then examined in the context of voices which were often excluded in mainstream historical documentation and engage with the concept of absence. The selection of memorials also provides an important contribution in relation to the ideological and aesthetic contribution of war memorials and monuments and the extent of their relevance in contemporary society.

Abstract:
The history of the Australian and new Zealand corps (ANZAC) in preparation for the landing on the Gallipoli Peninsula in the Egyptian training camps is studied. The relationship between the rank and file of the corps is analyzed. The study examines the living conditions and relationships of Australians and new Zealanders with the local population in and around Cairo. The study examines the training of corps units in training and exercises, the attitude of soldiers and officers to the quality of training of corps troops, as well as the participation of troops of the Australian-new Zealand army corps in the repulse of the Turkish offensive on the Suez canal in February 1915. An overview of the actions of the landing command to concentrate ANZAC forces in Mudros Bay (Lemnos) before the start of the landing at Gallipoli is given. The article makes extensive use of archival materials of the Australian War Memorial and British archives, the official history of Australia’s participation in world war I, diary entries and letters of Australians and new Zealanders who participated in the first convoy from Australia to Alexandria (Egypt), Russian and foreign research on the initial stage of the Gallipoli operation of the allied forces of the Entente against the Ottoman Empire..

Abstract:
My thesis is that museum exhibitions developed according to Freirean praxis would constitute a better learning opportunity for visitors, facilitate the process of evaluation, and enact the favoured museum principles of dialogic communication and community-building. ¶This project constitutes a cross-fertilisation of adult education, cultural studies and museum practice. In the last few decades, museum professional practice has become increasingly well informed by cultural critique. Many museum institutions have been moved to commit to building communities, but the question of how to do so via exhibition spaces is yet to be squarely addressed by the museum field. In this thesis I produce a detailed evaluation of a museum's informal learning program; and demonstrate the potential value of adult education theory and practice for enacting museums' commitment to dialogic communication and community-building. ¶To investigate the value of adult education praxis for museums, I consider the Australian War Memorial's signifying practice - the site and its exhibitions - as a program for informal learning. I conduct my analysis according to Ira Shor's (Freirean) method for engaging students in an extraordinary re-experience of an ordinary object. Shor's program calls for students to investigate the object through three stages of description, diagnosis and reconstruction. Respectively, I testify to my initial experience of the Memorial's program as a visitor, analyse its signification in national, international and historical contexts, and imagine an alternative means of signifying Australia's war memory. The resulting account constitutes a record of my learning process and a critical and constructive evaluation of the Memorial as a site for informal learning. It provides a single vision of what the Memorial is, what it means and how it could be reconstructed. But more importantly, my account demonstrates a program for simultaneously learning from the museum and learning about its signifying practice. This dual educational and evaluative method would mutually advantage a museum and its visiting public. In a museum that hosted a dialogic program, the exhibitions would invite evaluative responses that staff are otherwise at pains to generate. Concurrently, visitors would benefit because they would be engaging in a more critical and constructive learning process. In addition, the museum would be enacting the principle of dialogic communication that underpins the project of community-building.

Abstract:
This history of Australia’s official war art scheme of the First World War examines the processes by which its part in the conflict was given pictorial form as part of an official and publicly funded project of nation-building – the project of the official representation of Anzac – which involved representing Anzac in a written history, pictures, photographs, trophies, relics, models and sculptures, and as a national war museum. Conceived during the war by Charles Bean, Australia’s official war correspondent and historian, the object of this project was to construct a story of Australia’s part in the war – the Anzac story – to be told for posterity in a national war museum erected in the nation’s capital as a monument to the AIF, ultimately the Australian War Memorial. The story he constructed told of the arrival on the world stage of a young nation through its supreme military performance and of the forging of a military tradition known as Anzac. While Bean’s involvement in creating the Anzac legend is universally acknowledged, his role in constructing the official version of it has not been recognised. This history fills that gap in knowledge. Revering Britain’s military tradition and inculcated in the forms in which it was represented, Bean resolved to represent the Anzac story identically. Its tradition was represented pictorially by battle pictures, military scenes and portraits. The official war art scheme produced pictures made at the front, large historical pictures which illustrated the Anzac story, and portraits of its principal actors. This history shows how Bean exercised control over the scheme to create an image of Anzac that reflected his conception of it; to ensure that the Anzac story was illustrated as he wished it told for posterity; to promote the idea that Anzac was a military tradition which stood alongside the great traditions of other nations; and to promote the idea that Australia’s future nationality should be defined by that tradition.

Abstract:
The dissertation is divided into four sections. The first deals with the work experience gained at the Australian War Memorial, followed by that gained at the Abegg Stiftung. Observations on visits to other conservation laboratories and a report on the two international conferences attended, complete sections three and four. Work experience at the Australian War Memorial Textile conservation laboratory involved spending time in assisting with ongoing programs, conservation treatments carried out with supervision, as well as research. The time was divided so that all areas received equal emphasis. Ongoing programs involved the uniform inspections program and the display maintenance program. The involvement with routine tasks of surface cleaning, and with preparation for storage or display, with both programs, is not detailed in the dissertation. Nor can the dissertation include all the treatments of objects. Reference may be made for details on these treatments, to Australian War Memorial Conservation records for objects with the following accession numbers: AWM 1102,/5947,/10487, AWM 7919. However, two treatment reports are included. These are for a pair of flying boots worn by the Baron von Richthofen, and for an embroidered silk souvenir. The boots, now on permanent display were conserved with attention given to the need to preserve historical evidence, the choice of materials used for repair and requirements of display. The silk textile treatment took into consideration the benefits and risks involved in removing a deteriorated backing and relining a silk which was extremely embrittled. In the process it was realised that a facing might give stability to such a deteriorated silk; however, an initial study of facing materials and methods was required and was therefore undertaken and reported on in the dissertation. Whilst inspecting items in the relics collection of the Australian War Memorial a number of rubberised fabrics and other rubber materials were observed to show problems such as hardening, embrittlement, deformation, tackiness or discolouration. It was found that no information had been published on the treatment and preservation of such materials in the conservation literature. A survey on rubber deterioration and preservation literature since 1900 is included in the dissertation. The function, facilities and equipment of the textile conservation department of the Australian War Memorial are described as well as the storage of relics and uniforms. Work experience at the Abegg Stiftung involved assisting with group projects in most instances as well as working independently with supervision. It was therefore decided to report in general on the types of treatment given and give a brief account of the experience and skills gained. An example of a treatment report as was required for the Abegg Stiftung records is included as well as an example of detailed personal notes on the progress and treatment of a 15th century silk chasuble. The Abegg Stiftung is recognised as one of the foremost training centres in textile conservation in Europe. This led me to consider here the benefits and possible limitations of the program from the impressions gained during the three months work experience at the Institute. Round table discussions were held by Mechthilde Flury- Lehmburg which served to raise questions for discussion by textile conservation students and staff. This also permitted a concensus to be reached when items of a complex nature were to be conserved. A record of such a discussion is annexed. The Library of the Institute was frequently consulted by historians, as it specialises in textile conservation literature and many languages are represented, German being predominant. This library was consulted on German literature on textile conservation, and a brief guide to sources is included. Visits were made to a number of textile conservation laboratories in Europe. It was possible as a result of these visits to evaluate various types of equipment which are used for textile conservation. It was seen that although much skilful work was being done, especially in laboratories where more conservative treatments were preferred, there were a number of questions which were raised and remained unanswered. Subjects discussed and research undertaken are reported. The 1IC and ICOM conferences attended, introduced me to international cooperation and activity in conservation research and setting of standards. Information found to be relevant to progress in textile conservation research and related materials is summarised here.

About 3850 men of the First Australian Imperial Force were captured on the Western Front in France and Belgium between April 1916 and November 1918. They were mentioned only briefly in the volumes of the Official Histories, and have been overlooked in many subsequent works on Australia and the First World War. Material in the Australian War Memorial has been used to address aspects of the experiences of these neglected men, in particular the Statements that some of them completed after their release This thesis will investigate how their experiences ran counter to the narratives of CEW Bean and others, and seeks to give them their place in Australia???s Twentieth Century experience of war.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to outline the relationship that existed in the past and exists in the present, between Australians and the War Graves and Memorials to the Missing. commemorations of Australians who died during the First World War. Their final resting places are scattered all over the world and provide a tangible record of the sacrifice of men and women in the war, and represent the final result by Official Agencies such as the Imperial, and later, Commonwealth War Graves Commission, and its agency representative, the Office of Australian War Graves, of an attempt to appropriately commemorate them. The study follows the path of history from the event of death of an individual in the First World War, through their burial; temporary grave or memorial commemoration; the permanent commemoration; the family and public reaction to the deaths; how the Official Agencies of related Commonwealth Governments dealt with the dead; and finally, how the Australian dead are represented on the battlefields of the world in the 21st century. Australia.s war dead of the First World War are scattered around the globe in more than 40 countries and are represented in war cemeteries and civil cemeteries; and listed on large „Memorials to the Missing., which commemorate the individuals devoid of a known graves or final resting place.

Full text
Abstract:
This study examines the changing perceptions of Anzac Day in New Zealand, Australia and Turkey in the twentieth century. Changing interpretations of Anzac Day reflect social and political changes in the nations over that time. Anzac Day is an annual commemoration which has profound significance in the Australian and New Zealand social landscape. It has undergone significant changes of meaning since it began, and may be regarded as being an example of the changeable script of memory. The thesis argues that memory and landscape intersect to influence the way commemorative gestures are interpreted. Personal and community memories are fluid, influenced by the current historical landscape. This means that each successive Anzac Day can have different connotations. The public perception of these connotations is traced for each of New Zealand, Australia and Turkey. Anzac Day reflects the forces at work in the current historical landscape. Within that landscape it has different meanings and also functions as an arena for individual and community agency. On Anzac Day there are parades and services which constitute a public theatre where communities validate military service. Individual and communal feats are held high and an ethic or myth is placed as a model within the social fabric. Anzac Day is contested and reflects tides of opinion about war and society and the role of women. It is also the locale of quiet, personal contemplation, where central family attachments to the loved and lost and the debt owed by civilian communities to the military are expressed. Generational change has redefined its meanings and functions. Anzac Day was shaped in a contemporary historical landscape. It reflected multi-national perspectives within British Empire and Commonwealth countries and Turkey. For Turkey the day represented a developing friendship with former foes and was couched within Onsekiz Mart Zaferi, a celebration of the Çanakkale Savaşlari 1915 victory in the Dardanelles campaign. As Anzac Day evolved, Turkey, the host country for New Zealand and Australian pilgrims, became the focus of world attention on the day. Gallipoli is now universally recognised as the international shrine for Anzac Day.

Full text
Abstract:
Architect and soldier Sir J.J. Talbot Hobbs was born on 24 August 1864 in London. After migrating from England to Western Australia in the late 1880s, Hobbs designed many buildings that were constructed in Perth, Fremantle, and regional areas of the State. Although Talbot Hobbs has previously been recognised as a significant and influential contributor to architecture in Australia, his development as an architect has not been documented, nor has his design output undergone critical analysis. A number of problems confront attempts to interpret Hobbs' contribution to architecture. One is that a number of his most prominent building designs have been demolished. Another is that national recognition for his achievements as a First World War Army General have overshadowed his extraordinarily productive pre and post-war career as an architect. Military service was intrinsic to his character, and thus is woven in to this architectural biography. The thesis examines Hobbs' life and work, filling the gap in documented evidence of his contributions, and fitting it within the context of Australian architectural and social history. The main proposition to be tested is whether Hobbs' Australian architecture, of English derivation, combined with vast community service, warrants his recognition as an architect and citizen of national significance. Completely new important issues, information, discussion and facts that have resulted from the research for this thesis are: 1. Biographical knowledge about Hobbs' life – including his upbringing, education and training in England, and his fifty years of comprehensive work and community service in and for Australia; 2. The elucidation of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century architectural issues that were relevant to Hobbs and other architects in Western Australia; 3. Examination of the important works of Hobbs' architect predecessors and contemporaries in Perth, and the setting of his own work within this context; 4. Revelation of his primary and pivotal role in war memorial design and organisational work for the far-flung theatres of Australian Army conflicts and selected personal design works within Australia itself during 1919-38; and 5. A chronology and summary of Hobbs' life, with thorough documentation of his output as a sole practitioner in the period 1887-1904 by development of a detailed web-based database - an extremely valuable tool for future researchers.

Abstract:
Authentic public memorials did not appear in the Chinese public space until the late 19th century. As a result of Western influence, many war memorials were built during the Republic of China era (1912-1949). Since the establishment of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, the government has invested much in developing public spaces. Also, the government placed many memorials in Chinese cities to shape collective memory and urban identity. The affection of solemnness, sacredness, and grandness is the main affection that most memorials are intended to embody, particularly those that commemorate famous people, the government’s achievement, and the deceased from natural disasters and wars. By taking the example of memorials built from 1942 to the present in Chongqing, China, this paper critically examines changes over time in the forms. In addition, taking the analysis result from memorial forms as a base and combining widely cited literature in Chinese and English, the paper further explores the negative impacts of the intensive focus of solemnness, sacredness, and grandness. This paper’s analysis identifies standard, persistent and symbolic features in Chinese memorials, despite the diverse landscape elements and advanced construction techniques. Key themes emerge from this research are solemnness, sacredness, and grandness. Also, it reveals the issues raised by the exclusive pursuit of these affections, including similar memorial forms, insufficient engagement of memorials, and the unitary research topics on memorials.

Daunt, Lisa Marie. "Tradition and Modern Ideas: Building Post-war Cathedrals in Queensland and Adjoining Territories." In The 38th Annual Conference of the Society of Architectural Historians Australia and New Zealand. online: SAHANZ, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.55939/a4008playo.

Full text
Abstract:
As recent as 1955, cathedrals were still unbuilt or incomplete in the young and developing dioceses of the Global South, including in Queensland, the Northern Territory and New Guinea. The lack of an adequate cathedral was considered a “reproach” over a diocese. To rectify this, the region’s Bishops sought out the best architects for the task – as earlier Bishops had before them – engaging architects trained abroad and interstate, and with connections to Australia’s renown ecclesiastical architects. They also progressed these projects remarkably fast, for cathedral building. Four significant cathedral projects were realised in Queensland during the 1960s: the completion of St James’ Church of England, Townsville (1956-60); the extension of All Souls’ Quetta Memorial Church of England, Thursday Island (1964-5); stage II of St John’s Church of England, Brisbane (1953-68); and the new St Monica’s Catholic, Cairns (1965-8). During this same era Queensland-based architects also designed new Catholic cathedrals for Darwin (1955-62) and Port Moresby (1967-69). Compared to most cathedrals elsewhere they are small, but for their communities these were sizable undertakings, representing the “successful” establishment of these dioceses and even the making of their city. However, these cathedral projects had their challenges. Redesigning, redocumenting and retendering was common as each project questioned how to adopt (or not) emergent ideas for modern cathedral design. Mid-1960s this questioning became divisive as the extension of Brisbane’s St John’s recommenced. Antagonists and the client employed theatrics and polemic words to incite national debate. However, since then these post-war cathedral projects have received limited attention within architectural historiography, even those where the first stage has been recognised. Based on interviews, archival research and fieldwork, this paper discusses these little-known post-war cathedrals projects – examining how regional tensions over tradition and modern ideas arose and played out.

Full text
Abstract:
This lecture is dedicated to the memory of Professor Eddie Leonardi, formerly International Heat Transfer Conference (IHTC-13) Secretary, who tragically died at an early age on December 14, 2008. Eddie Leonardi had a large range of research interests: he worked in both computational fluid dynamics/heat transfer and refrigeration and air-conditioning for over 25 years. However starting from his PhD ‘A numerical Study of the effects of fluid properties on Natural Convection’ awarded in 1984, one of his main passions has been natural convection and therefore the focus of this lecture will be on what Eddie Leonardi has achieved in numerical and experimental investigations of laminar natural convective flows. A number of examples will be presented which illustrate important difficulties of numerical calculations and experimental comparisons. Eddie Leonardi demonstrated that variable properties have important effects and significant differences occur when different fluids are used, so that non-dimensionalisation is not an appropriate tool when dealing with fluids in thermally driven flows in which there are significant changes in transport properties. Difficulties in comparing numerical solutions with either numerically generated data or experimental results will be discussed with reference to two-dimensional natural convection and three-dimensional Rayleigh-Be´nard convection in bounded domains with conducting boundaries. For a number of years Eddie Leonardi was involved in a joint US-French-Australian research program — the MEPHISTO experiment on crystal growth — and studied the effects of convection on solidification and melting under microgravity conditions. The results of this research will be described. Finally, results of experimental and numerical studies of natural convection for Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) applications in which Eddie Leonardi had been working in the last few years will also be presented.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract A time-delayed failure due to stress-activated creep (cold-creep) will occur if the applied load is held constant at a level above the threshold. The results of small and full-scale tests on line pipe steels conducted by the Battelle Memorial Institute and the British Gas Corporation in the 1960s and 70s indicated that the (empirical) threshold for a time-delayed failure was approximately 85–95% SAPF (straight-away-pressure-to-failure). The line pipe steels were Grades X52 or X60, and the full-size equivalent Charpy V-notch impact energy (where reported) did not exceed 35 J. The strength and toughness of line pipe steels has significantly increased over the decades due to developments in steel-making and processing. The question then is whether an empirical threshold based on tests on lower strength and lower toughness steels is applicable to higher strength and higher toughness steels. A Tripartite Project was established to answer this question. The Australian Pipelines and Gas Association (APGA), the European Pipeline Research Group (EPRG) and the Pipeline Research Council International (PRCI) collaborated in conducting six full-scale step-load-hold tests on higher strength and higher toughness steels. Companion papers present the other aspects of this multi-year project. The line pipe supplied for testing is summarised below. • Identifier — Dimensions and Grade — f.s.e. Charpy V-notch impact energy at 0 C • APGA [A] — 457.0 × 9.1 mm, Grade X70M, ERW — 263 J • EPRG [E] — 1016.0 × 13.6 mm, Grade X70M, SAWL — 165 J • PRCI [P] — 609.6 × 6.4 mm, Grade X65, SAWL — 160 J Six step-load-hold tests, each with four part-through-wall defects, were conducted. Test Nos. APGA 1 and 2, and Nos. EPRG 1 and 2 were conducted at Engie, France. Test Nos. PRCI 1 and 2 were conducted at EWI, USA. The full-scale tests, and associated small-scale testing, are described and discussed. A time-delayed failure due to stress-activated creep occurred in each of the step-load-hold tests. The failures occurred during a hold-period at 93.7–104.4% SAPF, after a hold of approximately 1.0–13.9 hours. The results of the six step-load-hold tests are consistent with a threshold for a time-delayed failure of approximately 90% SAPF.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract A time-delayed failure due to stress-activated creep (cold-creep) is a failure that occurs under a constant load and with no growth due corrosion, fatigue or some other environmentally assisted time-dependent degradation mechanism. A time-delayed failure is prevented by reducing the pressure. ASME B31.4 and B31.8 recommend a 20 percent reduction, to 80 percent of the pressure at the time of damage or discovery. T/PM/P/11 Management Procedure for Inspection, assessment and repair of damaged (non-leaking) steel pipelines, an internal procedure used by National Grid, specifies a 15 percent reduction. The guidance in ASME B31.4 and B31.8, and in T/PM/P/11, is directly or indirectly based on the results of tests on the long term stability of defects conducted by the Battelle Memorial Institute and British Gas Corporation in the 1960s and 70s. The line pipe steels were Grades X52 or X60, and the full-size equivalent Charpy V-notch impact energy (where reported) did not exceed 35 J. The tests indicated that the threshold for a time-delayed failure was approximately 85–95% SAPF (straightaway-pressure-to-failure). The strength and toughness of line pipe steels has significantly increased over the decades due to developments in steel-making and processing. The question then is whether an empirical threshold based on tests on lower strength and lower toughness steels is applicable to higher strength and higher toughness steels. In the Tripartite Project, the Australian Pipelines and Gas Association (APGA), the European Pipeline Research Group (EPRG) and the Pipeline Research Council International (PRCI) collaborated in conducting full-scale six step-load-hold tests on higher strength and higher toughness steels. Companion papers present the other aspects of this multi-year project. An empirical threshold for a time-delayed failure is estimated using the results of the six step-load-hold tests. That estimate is also informed by the other published small and full-scale tests (on lower strength and lower toughness steels). The Ductile Flaw Growth Model is used to infer the effect of strength and toughness on the threshold for a time-delayed failure. A 15 percent pressure reduction, to 85 percent of the pressure at the time of damage (or of the maximum pressure that has occurred since the time of damage), is considered to be sufficient to prevent a time-delayed failure due to stress-activated creep in lower and higher toughness, in lower and higher strength, and in older and newer line pipe steels.

Abstract:
Coffs Harbour on the north coast of NSW is a highway city sandwiched between the Great Dividing Range and the Pacific Ocean. For thousands of years it was the traditional land of the numerous Gumbaynggirr peoples. Tourism now appears to be the major industry, supplanting agriculture and timber getting, while a large service sector has grown up around a sizable retirement community. It is major holiday destination. Located further away from the coast in the midst of a dairy farming community, Bellingen has become a centre of alternative culture which relies heavily on a variety of festivals activated by energetic tree changers and numerous professionals who have relocated from Sydney. Both communities rely on the visitor economy and there have been considerable changes to how local government in this region approach strategic planning for arts and culture. The newly built Coffs Harbour Education Campus (CHEC) is an experiment in encouraging cross pollination between innovative businesses and education and incorporates TAFE NSW, Coffs Harbour Senior College and Southern Cross University as well as the Coffs Harbour Technology Park and Coffs Harbour Innovation Centre all on one site. The 250 seat Jetty Memorial Theatre is the main theatre in Coffs Harbour for local and touring productions while local halls and converted theatres are the mainstay of smaller communities in the region. As peak body Arts Mid North Coast reports, there is a good record of successful arts related events which range across all genres of music, art, sculpture, Aboriginal culture, street art, literature and even busking and opera. These are mainly managed by passionate local volunteers.
