LiddellWORKS, art in action

camdenhistorynotes

The closure of Liddell Power Station in 2023 sparked artistic creations in the Hunter Valley. Sixteen artists generated artworks exploring the station's legacy. The power station, operational since the early 1970s, contributed significantly to the region's industrial landscape. The artworks aim to help local communities cope with the loss of jobs and the power station's impact on Australia's energy supply.

A contested sacred site in the historic landscape of the Cowpastures. St John's Church wants to sell a former horse paddock to fund a new worship centre against community opposition.
