In late March, the Australian Greens announced they would push for a $12.5 million investment to help complete structural building works at South Melbourne Town Hall, so that the Australian National Academy of Music (ANAM) could move back into its former home.
“Music is so important. It brings us together for good times, comforts us in tough times and provides the soundtrack to our lives,” Sonya Semmens, the Greens candidate for Macnamara (the Federal seat that includes South Melbourne Town Hall, and which is currently held by Labor’s Josh Burns) said in March.
