For Ann Martin, being part of Our Community Project has been about more than membership, it has been about 18 years of helping shape an organisation that believes in the power of community, creativity and opportunity.

Ann was there at the very beginning of Culture Bank, attending the first meeting held at Wollongong Library, and has remained a member ever since.

Nick Bolton, chair of Screen Illawarra, is an ardent filmmaker, actor, producer, director, theatre and arts lover. Nick is a passionate and pro active voice in the call to make Wollongong a viable film making destination.
