Explore Canberra’s creative side and progressive growth with the Regional Architecture Association.

With the combined insight of co-creative directors Hal Guida of Guida Moseley Brown and RAA president Tim Lee, CONTEXT will consider Canberra’s progression from outback sheep station to its current status as our nation’s capital. Taking Canberra as a prime example of a regional centre that has experienced considerable growth, this event will examine the planning journey over the years and the growing pains that have been experienced along the way.

We all know Canberra for its iconic buildings, however CONTEXT will look to reveal some largely unknown elements; it will bring to the fore its creative underbelly and unexpectedly vibrant art and design community that thrive beneath its formal surface.
