Art Deco in the Tropics - Innisfail
Inc., North Queensland, Australia

The society was formed in 2002 after a town meeting facilitated with the small town revitalisation facilitator Peter Kenyon. Robin Grow President of Art Deco Society Inc. Victoria said at the meeting that "Innisfail had one of the largest collections of Art Deco buildings in a CBD district in Australia".

Art Deco in the Tropics - Innisfail Inc. was formed to promote and conserve the cultural heritage of Innisfail and its surrounding districts and to attract visitors to our unique town and its environment.

We plan to do this by:

using education and promotion to increase the awareness and understanding of the Art Deco style
promoting other styles that relate to the Art Deco era
working with Council and building owners to encourage the retention, conservation and appreciation of Art Deco buildings
communicating with Art Deco Societies in Australia and internationally
working with educational bodies to increase awareness of our Art Deco heritage
working closely with local businesses to increase their awareness of the economic benefits of Art Deco tourism
encouraging sympathetic designs in new developments
