When the day is done, the dinosaurs come out!

As the sun sets over Wollumbin, look into the river for a surprising encounter!

See prehistoric creatures emerge from the depths of the Tweed River. ENCOUNTERS is a groundbreaking artwork brought to Murwillumbah for the first time by award winning local artist Craig Walsh.

ENCOUNTERS continues Craig’s series of interventionist projects which explore public waterways, and the vast histories and stories associated with them. The work enables species now extinct to once again appear and, in doing so, juxtaposes vast histories of occupancy in a specific geographic location.

After dusk, follow the dinosaur footprints to Murwillumbah Bridge to see ENCOUNTERS!
