Expanding in 2026 - Community Arts Programs, Wellbeing and More

Date Posted: November 26, 2025

Access Logan Inc. Welcomes a New Era in 2026
Expanding Our Home, Our Programs, and Our Impact

As we prepare to welcome a new year, Access Logan Inc. is excited to announce a major milestone for our organisation, our move into a brand-new, purpose-built facility at Unit 3, 13 Corporate Place, Hillcrest QLD 4118. This new space, currently being constructed in partnership with the local RSL Sub-Branch, marks a significant step forward in our mission to support people with disability, seniors, veterans, carers, and families across the Logan region.

This expansion will allow us to broaden our programs, strengthen our community presence, and deliver even more inclusive creative arts, wellbeing, social connection, and community access initiatives.

Our Journey So Far

Since establishing Access Logan Inc. in 2025, our team and community partners have worked tirelessly to bring meaningful arts and wellbeing experiences to the people of Logan. In our first 18 months, we achieved:

  • Two highly successful community arts events, the Logan West Arts Festival and the Artz Gala Night, which celebrated local artists and united the community.
  • The launch and ongoing growth of our NDIS Morning Tea, held on the first Monday of every month, supporting people with disability and now seniors seeking connection, advice, and advocacy.
  • Strong partnerships with local artists, service providers, and organisations that strengthen our reach and capacity.
  • Continued delivery of inclusive creative arts workshops, advocacy services, and peer-based referral support.

These achievements reflect the Strategic Priorities highlighted in our Strategic Plan 2025–2027, including cultural participation, community engagement, organisational sustainability, and advocacy for inclusive cultural life.

With this foundation in place, we are ready to grow even further.

A New Home Built for Inclusion, Creativity, and Community

Our new premises at Unit 3, 13 Corporate Place, Hillcrest will become a vibrant community hub — a welcoming space for residents of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds to connect, create, and thrive.

This modern facility will allow us to deliver an expanded suite of programs, including:

1. Creative Arts Programs & Workshops

Hands-on, inclusive community arts programs for people of all ages and skill levels, providing creative expression, skill-building, cognitive stimulation, and confidence-building opportunities. These programs directly support our primary purpose of advancing community arts and cultural development, as outlined on page 4 of our Strategic Plan.

2. Social & Community Access Programs

Tailored experiences for people with disability, seniors, and carers to reduce isolation, build friendships, and improve wellbeing through safe, supported community connection.


3. Health & Wellness Programs

Mindfulness workshops, gentle movement classes, emotional wellbeing sessions, and community health activities designed to improve holistic wellbeing.

4. Major Community Arts Events

Our new space will support the continued growth of major cultural events, including:

  • Logan West Arts Festival - Annual Community Arts Celebration & Arts & Creative Markets
  • Logans Annual Artz Gala Awards, Exhibition and Auction Night

These events showcase community talent while strengthening partnerships with local artists, cultural organisations, and businesses.

5. Veteran-Friendly & Veteran-Focused Activities

In partnership with the RSL Sub-Branch, we will deliver creative and wellbeing programs designed for ex-service personnel, with referral pathways for both NDIS and MyAgedCare supports.

6. Advocacy, Information & Peer Support

We will continue to offer assistance navigating NDIS plans, accessing community services, and advocating for participants, seniors, and carers, ensuring no one in our community feels alone or unsupported.

Why We Need Your Support in 2026

As we prepare for 2026, we are acutely aware of the extremely high level of competition for community funding. For our programs to continue expanding, and for our new facility to reach its full potential, community support and recognition are essential

We are calling for partners, sponsors for our events from local businesses, suppliers, local leaders, stakeholders, and champions of the arts who wish to give back to the community. 

Your active support helps us show the council, state, and federal governments and funding bodies that our work matters, not just to our participants, but to our community as a whole. Please contact us for more information on how to help support our programs. 

Our Vision for 2026 and Beyond

As highlighted throughout our Strategic Plan 2025–2027, we are committed to building:

  • An inclusive Logan community where people with disability, seniors, youth, carers, families, and veterans can participate in creative and cultural life
  • A sustainable arts space that fosters collaboration, connection, and community pride
  • A thriving local arts culture, strengthened by partnerships with artists, businesses, providers, and cultural organisations
  • A community where creativity, wellbeing, and social inclusion are accessible to all

These goals are supported by our organisational priority areas, Cultural Programs, Community Engagement, Sustainability & Growth, and Advocacy (as outlined on page 2 of the Strategic Plan).

Together, We Can Make Logan a Leader in Inclusive Community Arts

Our move to Unit 3, 13 Corporate Place marks the beginning of an exciting chapter, one filled with growth, opportunity, and community collaboration.

With your support, we can expand our programs, reach more community members, and create a lasting impact that strengthens social connection, wellbeing, and cultural inclusion across Logan.

Together, we can build a more connected, creative, and inclusive Logan.
