Sustainability Sundowner

Wednesday 21 February | 6.00pm - 9.00pm | Bob Hawke College

Have you ever wondered how to increase the sustainability of your existing home? Or perhaps you are about to build a new home, or undertake some new redevelopment? Join us at the City of Subiaco’s (City) Sustainability Sundowner, a free event for the community where we will be covering all things sustainable development!

Sustainability is a key priority for both the City and its community. The City is proud to showcase its sustainability achievements, including the recent launch of the City’s new planning policy on sustainable development available here (a Western Australian first!)

The event will also feature presentations from two key sustainability experts, Sid Thoo (Green Gurus) and Jimmy Thompson (MJA Studio), who will share valuable information for the community on how to improve sustainability outcomes in existing and new homes.

A brief panel discussion will follow with questions from the floor (or you can submit your panel questions prior to the event with your RSVP).

This event is proudly sponsored by Rise Urban.
