Fisher Design +Architecture Guest Speakers – Grafton ‘Plunge’ Festival

Grafton – April 2021

A Q&A event – Building Bridges, was held at Grafton Library as part of the 2021 Plunge Arts and Culture Festival, which explored our natural and built environment and what that looks like in Grafton, ‘The City of Trees’.

The event included guest panellists Frances Belle Parker, Claire Aman and Anna & Christian Fisher from Fisher Design + Architecture who explored this topic through their experience.

The Plunge festival conversation will ultimately inform a 5 x 18m street artwork in Grafton Library car park.

Grafton Library is a central landmark that opened in 2014. The library site provides the perfect concrete canvas on which we can explore the relationship between the spaces of our CBD and the lush natural beauty of the Clarence Valley.
