Thanks for joining us at 2044 Street Takeover!
Take back the streets and celebrate the creative energy of postcode 2044!
2044 Street Takeover highlights artists from St Peters, Tempe and
Sydenham, famous for their gritty and eclectic mix of industry, art and
community. May Street and May Lane in St Peters will be taken over by local bands, creative workshops, outdoor dining, roving performances
and more.
Enjoy music by Lady Lyon, CINTA, The Kindness and Cocoa the Conscious, as
well as bands from Tempe High and Tempe Public School. In between, you can join
a workshop, whether it’s craft-making with Made by Me, developing photos using
recycled materials with Darkroom Social, or creating artworks inspired by our
urban surroundings and informed by your senses at Echoes of the City.
Otherwise, kick back, enjoy some local food and be entertained by the
Sydney Trapeze School or your local (very lost and confused) clown, Curly
Fernandez.
Make sure you also check out Creative Trails Midjuburi, happening on
the same weekend, 2 & 3 November, in Marrickville and surrounds!
2044 Street Takeover - Program
Funding Partners
2044 Street Takeover is funded by Transport for NSW under the Vibrant Streets Package – Open Streets Program, to inject vibrancy into our streets and help create thriving local places that support businesses, creative sectors, and the community through events and activations. The Program is one stream of the Vibrant Streets Package, an investment that will help transform our streets into more vibrant public spaces, with creative and cultural activations in the short term, and the trial of place management strategies to support sustainable activation in the long term.
Charity Partner
Newtown Neighbourhood Centre has been the heart of Sydney’s Inner West for nearly 50 years.
We exist to build an inclusive, resilient, self-reliant and creative community. Our program delivery spans the entire spectrum of our vibrant neighbourhood.
From targeted, early intervention for disadvantaged families and young people to people experiencing homelessness and living in boarding houses. We also ensure seniors receive individual social support and we organise seniors’ social groups including cultural-specific group activities. We believe that everyone deserves a safe place to be and a community to belong to.
