I am honoured to let you know that this afternoon I was sworn in by Governor of Victoria Linda Dessau AC as the Minister for Creative Industries in the Andrews Labor Government. This is in addition to my roles as Assistant Treasurer, Minister for Government Services and Minister for Regulatory Reform.

Some exciting news! Art installations coming to around 40 of Melbourne’s laneways

Melbourne's laneways might be some of our smallest public spaces.

But they're also some of our most loved and iconic.

And that's why we're using this time to turn around 40 of them into something completely unique - ready for when we can safely reopen the CBD.

More than 150 Victorians working in the creative industry will be hired for the job.

Designers and artists, music producers and light specialists.

It'll be the biggest laneway revitalisation project in Melbourne's history.

And when we're back up and running, it will bring locals and visitors back to our city - and to the businesses that call it home.

I reckon it'll be pretty special. ... See more
