The next part of the project is installing the 4,500 square metres of cladding.
That cladding will cover the south west corner of the facility and over the large 80 metre by 50 metre roof.
Blayney mayor Scott Ferguson said that the structure was the largest part of the $2.2 million project and it was already drawing attention.

The centre is funded by the NSW government's Regional Growth Environment and Tourism Fund.
