The NSW government has approved a lifeline for Carriageworks, which could lift the multi-arts venue out of voluntary administration
The Berejiklian government has backed a philanthropist-led lifeline for Carriageworks in a move that promises to lift the multi-arts venue out of voluntary administration.
The Neilson Foundation committed $500,000 and the Gonski family foundation $200,000, most of the latter to kick in over four years once Carriageworks has resumed trading. The government's offer is for a 10-year lease, with the option of another two five year terms, important because Carriageworks has been operating on a month-by-month lease since 2018.
