Lismore MP Thomas George said Tenterfield Shire Council will receive $2457 as one of 11 projects that secured a total of $1.6 million funding through the NSW Government’s new Regional Cultural Fund (RCF).
The fund is aimed at making it easier for museum, art and other culturally important collections to be explored and enjoyed by the public across Australia and the world.

With the funding, Tenterfield Shire Council will improve public access to the school’s collections, and local community museums will be enhanced by utilising an online collection management system.
“This is a huge win for the School of Arts which will allow even more people to enjoy its unique collection,” Mr George said.
“Tenterfield has a rich history, and this investment will not only help us preserve that, but will also allow us share our stories with a wider, global audience.”
