Inner West Council is proud to announce the artists commissioned as part of EDGE Inner West 2024. As part of a major partnership with Biennale of Sydney, EDGE Inner West stands to be one of the most exciting creative presentations within the Inner West for 2024.

EDGE Inner West is a festival that sweeps across spaces where histories are held within the land, waterways, and architecture of site. In 2024, EDGE Inner West will be presented in partnership with Biennale of Sydney across three weekends in April; with a program of works by performance artists excavating stories ingrained in local land or reimagining the future that will befall us.

EDGE Inner West will see two weekends of new and reimagined performance commissions at White Bay Power Station (6-7 April) and Petersham Town Hall (13-14 April); followed by a weekend of talks programming at White Bay (27-28 April).
