The Civic Stage

A 2027 anniversary conversation series

Marking 50 years of
the Eric Ormond Baker
Charitable Fund.

What do we owe the communities that sustain us?

The Civic Stage is a public conversation series being developed in Geelong for 2027.

Centred around shared tables, thoughtful contributors and carefully composed conversation, the series will bring together voices from philanthropy, education, culture, business and community life to reflect on civic responsibility, generosity and leadership.

The first series will mark the 50th anniversary of the Eric Ormond Baker Charitable Fund, using that milestone not only as a moment of remembrance, but as an invitation to ask what civic responsibility might mean now.

Further details about the 2027 series will be shared as the program develops. For enquiries, please contact The Civic Stage.
