Arts
The Honourable Don Harwin MLC has served as New South Wales’ Minister for the Arts since the start of 2017, and has overseen some significant chapters in the state’s artistic life. Harwin was born into a musical household and that great love of music has propelled him through his career. In this interview with our Artistic Director, Lyndon Terracini, Harwin talks about his ambitious plan to create a new hub in Sydney of rehearsal spaces, recording spaces and recital spaces for orchestras, particularly young and emerging orchestras. He also talks about his vision for the future of the arts in New South Wales and Australia, and the social goods performed by the arts.
