Conservation of public art in Nillumbik

The preservation of the public art collection is a priority for Council, reflecting our commitment to maintaining the region's unique cultural heritage.

To ensure artworks remain in optimal condition for future generations, we undertake rigorous preservation efforts. An example of these efforts is the regular audits conducted by specialised conservation contractors.

After meticulously assessing the condition of each artwork, Council receives condition reports that provide valuable insights into the current state of the collection and recommends specific conservation actions. These audits enable us to develop comprehensive conservation plans, outlining each artwork's short-term, medium-term, and long-term needs.

This proactive approach allows for strategic resource allocation, ensuring that conservation efforts are prioritised effectively.
