The Hedberg is one of Tasmania’s most ambitious cultural and arts infrastructure projects – a $110 million building being delivered through a collaborative partnership between the University, the Australian and Tasmanian Governments and the Theatre Royal.

The Hedberg equips University of Tasmania students with the agility needed for contemporary communication and creative careers and leadership. Teaching here reflects the way a convergence of music and image, stage and screen, and art and science is redefining creative careers.
Students can realise their creative vision from forming a concept and taking it to the audience through performance, writing or recording. Along the way, they engage with professional musicians, media commentators take part in internationally acclaimed festivals, and build a portfolio of work.
The Hedberg is also a catalyst for developing new and innovative curriculum. This has manifested already in the Making the Event unit offered to students from multiple disciplines across Media and Communication, Fine Arts, Music, and Theatre and Performance, culminating in a one-night-only immersive experience and micro-festival across four floors of The Hedberg.
The Hedberg is a gateway to numerous wider degree offerings, within the School of Creative Arts and Media and more broadly in the College of Arts, Law and Education, where the priority is to equip students with the distinctive capacities needed to deliver a good and just society in Tasmania and the world.
