Set against the backdrop of a once-thriving convent, this narrative explores the rich history of the Abbotsford Convent, which served multiple roles over the years, from a refuge to a prison. As plans for high-density development threatened its existence, the local community rallied to protect the site. Their activism led to its preservation and transformation into a cultural hub, now recognized on Australia's National Heritage List. The story highlights the power of community efforts in safeguarding history and fostering artistic renewal.
