With Cementa26 just around the corner, it’s time to start getting to know the artists bringing their practices, questions and wildly generous ways of working to Kandos this September.

First up, Kim Williams and Lucas Ihlein!

Kim and Lucas collaborate on socially engaged art and environmental projects, working with communities to tackle complex environmental problems. Community engagement and participation are central to their practice, moving through research, consultation, design, making and participatory events.

Their collaborative projects have explored regenerative agriculture in the canefields of Queensland, environmental practices in arts organisations, urban waterways and, most recently, the health implications, environmental benefits and social barriers to composting human waste through Pootopia!

See their work as part of Cementa26, curated by Sebastian Henry-Jones, 17–20 September 2026 in Kandos.

Cementa26 is proudly supported by the NSW Government through Create NSW and the Australian Government through Creative Australia.

Cementa26 is proudly supported by the NSW Government through its tourism and major events agency, Destination NSW.

Museum of Concrete Update!

Over the past few months we have been working on the Business Case Study for the Museum of Concrete initiative at Kandos Museum.

This effort has been lead by Stafford Strategy, a leading consultancy in the tourism and culture with a special eye towards what makes economic sense.

We asked Stafford Strategy to give us a "without fear or favour" assessment of the Museum of Concrete with 3 big questions, "would there be an audience?", "do the numbers stack up?" and "could the Museum of Concrete be the cornerstone visitor attraction to the Kandos & Rylstone region with 30,000 visits per year?"

The report is in and the answer to all three questions, and more, is YES!

What's next? A deep dive effort to secure funding to bring the Museum of Concrete to "shovel ready" with Architecture, Engineer and Content development done an with DA and CC in place. Here's to 2026!!

This study was made possible by the generous support of Cenagen. Many thanks.
