LiddellWORKS, art in action
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 artworks aim to help local communities cope with the loss of jobs and the power station's impact on Australia's energy supply.
