25.01.2022 We have all got used to hovering our phones over a QR code to keep COVIDSafe and now this technology is being used in the Norwest Business Park to bring Christm...as to life on a festive walking trail. Walkers on the new augmented reality walking trail can use their mobile phone to see the great Aussie Christmas tree, take photos with Santa, get fit with Santa’s elves, and visit the Norwest Pole at one of 10 locations on the walking trail around Norwest Lake.

12.01.2022 Drawing Blacktown with Peter Rush With an interest in the urban environment, Sydney-based artist Peter Rush sketches familiar places and everyday life in an i...nsightful way. An architect by trade, Rush works with materials that range from pen and paper to used cereal boxes to capture the mood, expression and texture of city streets. His exhibition Drawing Blacktown is the result of a 2019 residency at Blacktown Arts’ Main Street studios. During his residency, Rush spent many weeks sketching around Main St, Blacktown. Locals will know and recognise many buildings, shops, signs and locations in Rush’s art, but may also see things in a new light thanks to his dynamic style. Drawing Blacktown is at The Leo Kelly Blacktown Arts Centre from Tuesday 13 October to Saturday 31 October 2020.
