THE CULTURAL CITY

from THE GRIMSHAW PODCAST

Lisa Havilah is the powerhouse behind The Powerhouse in Sydney, or as it is officially known, the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences. Were it not for the fact that she is completely unique, she would be the model for the cultural entrepreneur as force of nature. Cities are where not only wealth is generated but also cultural innovation. This role was always crucial but never more so as we collectively attempt to restore momentum and life to our cities in the wake of Covid. Who better to offer their insights on – and passion for – this than someone leading not just one culture-led precinct renewal of international significance but two: for Lisa is transforming the Museum’s historic site in the centre of Sydney and creating a new museum and cultural innovation district at the Sydney metropolitan region’s second central business district, Parramatta. And while she is telling us all about this exciting stuff she slips in her 10 Principles for regenerating our city centres after the pandemic. A star turn.
