The Narrandera Water Tower Art was painted by Apparition Media in May 2019. The stories behind the mural design include significant icons for the Narrandera Shire Community.
In 1950, there were no Koalas in the region after succumbing to poison and guns! In 1972, the community established a reserve
with just four Koalas. Now, there are many hundreds once again.
The name Narrandera is derived from Narrungdera, the name of the Wiradjuri clan that inhabited the land where the town now rests, meaning ‘place of many lizards’, referring to the Eastern Bearded Dragon.
Also featured is the Tiger Moth Biplane, designed in the 1930’s.
