Living Memory: Community codesign workshop

Many residential properties in North Lismore are part of the buyback stream of the Resilient Homes Program, the largest residential buyback program in Australian history. As the suburb transitions from a vibrant neighbourhood to a new future, many local stories, it’s history and the deep understanding of place will move with the residents.  

Living Memory is a community project exploring the stories, history and memories of North Lismore. At the heart of this work is the desire to creatively support a community experiencing a massive transformation — to tell their stories in their own words.  With North Lismore residents, we will create a series of reflections and portraits, and a collection of historical materials and artefacts, celebrating the people and a suburb now rapidly changing.  

If you’re a current or recent resident of North Lismore your local knowledge is vital to this project and we’d love you to be involved.  

Come join Adele Wessell and Cherine Fahd as they share more about the project and learn how it can be designed with the interests of locals in mind.
