Congrats and welcome… you’ve just discovered the #freofinds project, a joint project between the City of Fremantle and the Fremantle Chamber of Commerce.
#freofinds is a series of window vignettes placed in shopfront windows and interesting spaces around our beautiful seaside city.
Some windows will help you find your way around the streets of Fremantle while others will visualize a new business, others will be creative responses to Fremantle by local artists.
They will all challenge our perceptions of Fremantle, what is old, what’s new and how we navigate our way through and around WA’s favourite old port town during the most significant transformation of our generation.
Ultimately #freofinds is a way-finding based adventure trail that will take you into interesting corners of our city that you can explore and witness as we all experience the changes taking place in Fremantle.
