| Project Name: | Bathurst Neighbourhood Billy Cart Project |
| Suburb: | Bathurst |
| State: | New South Wales |
| Amount: | $45,774 |
| Project Summary: | The project comprises four distinct parts aimed at creating opportunities for all people, particularly those who are financially vulnerable or of Indigenous descent, to participate in cultural, social, political and economic aspects of life. The project will start with an oral history group of students studying multi media and will work in partnership with members of the Bathurst Arts Council and the Community Radio Station to put together a DVD. The DVD will be used in the local schools as an historical and promotional tool. The project will offer a series of up to fifteen workshops over the course of eight months to design, build and ultimately race billy carts. The workshops will be facilitated by the Lions Club, Woodcraft Club and by local corporate volunteers. |
