Arts centre views sought

Tuesday, 16 September, 2003 - 22:00

SUBMISSIONS have been called for on the development of a performing arts centre in Perth.

The Playhouse Theatre is scheduled to close by 2008 and the need for a new performing arts venue has been identified.

Arts Minister Sheila McHale said public consultation would play a role in determining the location, size, nature and functions of the new facility.

A project briefing will be conducted by the Department of Culture and the Arts at the Kings Street Arts Centre on September 10.

Submissions close on October 31.
