Amplifying artworks that transcend form, The Substation’s multi-artform spaces are illuminated with the most urgent contemporary arts to inspire us to refigure problematic histories, imagine possible futures, and forge new connections. The Substation is the nation’s leader in multi-arts and experimental practice. We connect our continent’s most diverse local communities in Naarm/ Melbourne’s west to the world through a program of international, national and local presentation, development and engagement opportunities.

The Substation is committed to the ongoing involvement of local communities in our planning and decision-making. Embodying this commitment is the Community Reference Group: a collective of local stakeholders brought together to facilitate community input, feedback and participation in The Substation’s program.

Chaired by our community ambassador Luke Isaacs, the Community Reference Group aims to grow and strengthen connections with local communities in Newport, Hobsons Bay and Melbourne’s greater west. The Community Reference Group works together to ensure the meaningful and continued involvement of local audiences, artists, not-for-profit organisations, schools and volunteers in The Substation’s operations.
