Wellard Village 7 Day Makeover

Like a reality show only real! The Wellard Community came together to make over Wellard Village in just 7 days. Real action! Real results!

The City partnered with RAC through its Reconnect WA initiative, to makeover Wellard Village in just 7 days!

The Wellard Community came together to share ideas, vote, plan, and help deliver placemaking projects over seven consecutive days in April 2023. The Wellard Village 7DM also incorporated a youth-specific element, through which local young people were empowered to plan and deliver their own projects.

The whole process was overseen by David Engwicht from Creative Communities International. David is a world renowned placemaker, community activator, and champion of public spaces.
