The City of Stirling is a large and vibrant community, with something happening every day. Living Together is focused on sharing the services and programs available in your neighbourhood. From seniors programs and volunteering, to library activities, access and inclusion initiatives, grants, and family services.

Community connection
Men's Shed allows members of the communiy to take part in woodwork projects, socialise with others and raise awareness of health issues in a safe, friendly environment.
Members craft various items from recycled or donated timber, using woodworking machines, power and hand tools. Funds raised through the sale of these items are invested back into the Shed to ensure that the facility remains a vibrant and valuable space for its members.
Autumn, Pensioner, Retirees and Senior Citizen’s Clubs operate from most of the City’s community centres. They provide a meeting place for our older people who wish to participate in social, educational and recreational activities (various membership and activity fees may apply).
Club activities can include concerts, cards, dancing, indoor bowls, bus trips and other great activities!

The City provides opportunities for young people with a range of youth services and activities throughout the year.
The City's art and history collections have a new home
Over the past year a new and upgraded online database that houses both the Art and Local History Collections has been developed. This new collection management system and website will allow anyone to access elements of these Collections at the click of a button.
The City of Stirling’s Visual Art Collection incorporates 260 artworks that span the mediums of painting, works on paper, sculpture, textile, ceramics, photography and digital art, with an emphasis on contemporary Western Australian artists and arts practice, and includes work by First Nations artists. The collection is displayed and rotated throughout the City’s civic, administration and community buildings.
The Public Art Collection consists of over 82 permanent sculptures, integrated artworks, murals, play-friendly pieces and functional artworks that contribute to the City’s public spaces by expressing local stories, enhancing neighbourhoods, public amenities and community connections to place.
