Immerse yourself in the Inner West's rich artistic culture

Sydney has a reputation for creativity and fostering a culture of various artistic avenues throughout the city. One region that has quite a vibrant community is the Inner West, where a number of initiatives and displays are underway to help support and showcase the region's talent.

The area is home to a wide range of different institutes that aim to help encourage the development of artistic skill, including the New South Wales Writers' Centre, Sydney College of Arts, and a wide range of commercial galleries and displays.

For example, the art space in Birrung Park is a public area that has been created to help reduce the incidence of illegal graffiti art occurring throughout the suburbs while providing a place where these aspiring street artists can hone their skills and express their creativity.

The park provides a formal area for their art to be displayed, with the space facilitated by the Leichhardt Council in partnership with community artists and a project coordinator.

Or if theatre is more your style, Legs On The Wall is a company located in Lilyfield that regularly pushes the envelope - both physically and aesthetically.

Described as physical theatre, the company has a focus on storytelling through the use of movement and pose rather than strictly through spoken word. There are a number of exciting shows coming up in the company's future, so keep an eye out for shows in the near future.

The literary enthusiasts will also be excited by the region's Writers' Centre, which offers a wide range of resources and support for established and aspiring writers. They also host a number of events that focus on the world of writing.

These are just some of the rich cultural facilities across Balmain and the Inner West suburbs of Sydney. Now could be the perfect time to consider purchasing property in the region and immersing yourself in the area's cultural atmosphere.
