Logan City Council is transforming the Kingston Butter Factory Precinct into a world-class arts, culture and entertainment precinct. The historic Kingston Butter Factory (KBF) building will be reimagined to incorporate a new blackbox-style theatre, as well as a living museum to celebrate the stories of our people, including our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. Outside, the spacious 14-hectare grounds are being developed into the city’s largest purpose-built Outdoor Events Space, with capacity for 5,000 patrons to see national and international acts and host major festivals, markets and community events.

Objectives

As well as the theatre, the KBF building will also include:

-flexible studio space for rehearsals -multi-purpose function and event spaces -foyer, reception and box office -a living museum to share the city’s cultural heritage and stories of our people -significant flexible, multipurpose space for events, functions and displays -meeting rooms. A living museum would provide Logan’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and intercultural communities a place to tell their stories in their words. Council hopes it will be a cultural experience where visitors can see, hear, taste and engage with the many different stories of Logan. Consultation with Logan communities will be essential for Council to successfully develop the museum.

We aim to develop new audiences with a focus on youth culture but aware of the need to program work across generations, cultural backgrounds and artforms.
