CITY of Kwinana is running two community workshops to gather input about preserving Kwinana’s heritage sites.

All community members are invited to attend and provide ideas around the vision for the City’s unique heritage listed buildings, Sloan’s Cottage and Smirk’s Cottage.

The Heritage Workshops will be run by a facilitator and focus on how to best manage the sites and maintain the collections preserved there.
