The City of Melville’s Vault Youth Space will be redeveloped into a vibrant, multi-purpose venue in 2012.
The refurbishment will take approximately six months and the newly revamped space will provide a venue for entertainment and casual hire use with the capacity to host 100 people.
The proposed works include: accessible toilets, a new kitchenette, storage space, a portable stage, new flooring and one meeting room for casual hire.
Mayor Russell Aubrey said the opportunity to create the multi-purpose space came from a survey conducted with young people in 2010.
“In the Directions for Young People 2010-2013 survey, youth said they would prefer multiple youth-friendly facilities, which allow many different groups to enjoy a space together,” he said.
“Young people remain a high-priority for the City and we will continue to welcome them to youth-friendly events at the newly-renovated venue.”
Once the renovation is completed, a launch event will be held to show off the new facility.
To find out more please contact 1300 635 845 or email marissa.verma@melville.wa.gov.au for more information on hiring the new venue.
