Celebrating 15 Years of Belonging With Our Community

You’re invited to celebrate a very special milestone for The Place as we mark 15 years of community, connection and belonging in Lake Macquarie.


To honour this journey, we’re hosting a community celebration on Friday the 1st of May from 2:00 pm - 4:30 pm and everyone is welcome!


The afternoon will feature our “15 Years of Belonging” public photo exhibition, showcasing the people, programs and moments that have shaped The Place over the years. We’ll also host a special community recognition event celebrating our long-standing groups and the incredible individuals who have helped shape The Place and what it is today.


Enjoy food, music, entertainment and connection as we come together to celebrate our diverse and vibrant community. Whether you’ve been part of The Place for years or are visiting for the first time, we’d love you to join us.


This is a free event open to the whole community, however RSVPs are essential. Please RSVP HERE, call (02) 4032 5500 or email programs@theplacecharlestown.org.au


We look forward to celebrating 15 years of impact with you!
