Fitzroy St Projections

8 August 2026 

A Night of Light, Projection and Creative Placemaking

This August, our main street become something to look up at, as Fitzroy Plaza fills with light, projection and creative experiences after dark.

Admission is free. Everyone welcome.

Community workshops and immersive public activations run throughout each event. Full program details will be shared closer to the dates.

WHY IT MATTERS

Our town centres are where we shop, eat, gather and meet. When Main Streets Dream invites you to see them differently. Designed as a creative placemaking project rather than a traditional arts event, it shows how creativity can strengthen our communities, support local businesses and bring people back into the heart of our towns after dark.

For one night in each town, familiar CBD spaces become places of imagination and connection. Each activation is made for its location and exists for one evening only, leaving a light environmental footprint while creating a shared experience people remember.

HOW IT WORKS

Using light, projection, temporary installations and interactive experiences, the project activates our CBDs and turns familiar streets into immersive public spaces.

Local commissioned regional creatives: Daniel Stanley, Logan Hughes, Ethan Lazinos, bring expertise across projection, animation, digital media, immersive technologies and contemporary visual art. Each has responded to the character, buildings and stories of the town they are working in

A student program in Tamworth: Students from Tamworth Art Academy are working alongside Daniel Stanley and Logan Hughes to create a large-scale collaborative projection work, learning animation, digital media and projection technologies before seeing their work shown in public.

Light, projection and installation: Creative lighting, temporary inflatable installations and immersive public art transform each location for one evening.

Community workshops and activations: Workshops and public activations run throughout each event, giving people of all ages a way to take part.

Made possible by Tamworth Regional Gallery,  Arts North West, Visa in partnership with Mainstreet Australia.
