two.1.4) Short description
Timespan finds itself at a pivotal juncture, marked by significant transformation efforts. This moment is critical, requiring a comprehensive revitalisation of our entire building to support our strategic plan for 2025-2028 (see attached). The need for redevelopment stems from our commitment to unlocking Timespan's full potential as a cohesive, sustainable museum and cultural institution.
A feasibility study will inform this transformation, ensuring Timespan evolves into a more accessible, sustainable, and inclusive institution. The study will shape significant changes across both our physical infrastructure and the interpretive narratives that reflect our community's evolving needs and the broader impacts of the climate crisis and the legacies of colonialism and extractivism.
