Project Updates

Stay up to date on the progression of the Hooded Plover Mural.

We are creating a new mural on the concreate retaining wall at the Karrawirra Parri Torrens River outlet to promote Council's recently introduced By-Law. Dogs are required to be on leash 100 metres from the signs advising that there is a hooded plover or red capped plover nest, eggs or chicks in the vicinity.

The location

The mural will be painted at the Karrawirra Parri Torrens outlet site as Hooded Plover has been found to nest in this area.

Creating the mural

We received 17 expressions of interest to create a design that promotes Hooded Plovers and the importance of keeping dogs on leash. We have shortlisted three artists who provided a concept design.

Seeking your feedback

We encourage you to:

  • View the mural concept designs
  • Provide suggestions on how the mural can be as impactful as possible
  • Select your two favourite murals

Selecting the final artwork

The community's feedback will be utilised in selecting and finalising the final mural design.

Do you have any suggestions to increase the impact of the mural?

We are seeking suggestions that will ensure people are aware of hooded plovers and their nesting sites and the importance of keeping their dogs on a leash.
