Cox Rayner
Thuringowa City Council
The Riverway Arts Centre was delivered as part of the broader Riverway development, bringing visual and performing arts facilities together within one of Townsville’s major community, cultural and recreation precincts.
Cox Rayner, as principal consultant, engaged RCP to provide project management and programming services for the design consortium through documentation, tender and construction.
RCP established and maintained the project programme, coordinating inputs across the multidisciplinary consultant team and managing the sequence of design information required for procurement and construction. With the arts centre progressing alongside other Riverway works, the programme also needed to account for interfaces and dependencies across the wider precinct.
RCP worked closely with Cox Rayner and the consultant team to keep design packages, documentation and key decisions aligned with the construction programme, helping the Arts Centre progress in step with the surrounding development.
A significant cultural facility for Townsville.
The completed 2,600 sqm facility brings together the Pinnacles Gallery, a 300-seat black box theatre, rehearsal rooms, recording studios, workshops and office accommodation.
Designed to accommodate exhibitions, live performance, creative production and community events, the Arts Centre established a significant cultural facility for Townsville and became an important part of the wider Riverway precinct.
