Discover Salisbury
Gillian Aldridge, OAM Mayor of Salisbury
There are so many great activities happening throughout the City of Salisbury, whether it be the SALA Festival at the Salisbury Community Hub or countless school holiday activities, there is something for everyone. While winter has reduced quality outdoor time, it is exciting to know that spring is just around the corner! Spring is the perfect time to get out and about and explore our nature spaces, like our meandering wetlands, long walking trails, reserves and parks. In this edition, we’re talking public art! The City of Salisbury is the home of many great pieces of public art and we’ve picked out some of the newest and best for you to go out and view for yourself. The list contains pieces of public art from right across the City. Whether you want to see one at a time, or see them all at once, these fantastic displays are sure to catch your eye. This edition will also introduce some of our creative and artistic residents to the Poles apART program, which gives people the opportunity to paint stobie poles in their neighbourhood. We have so many creative people in our City, so I encourage everyone to get involved. Discover Salisbury highlights all of the great experiences in our City – most of these are free! Flick through this guide and take a look at all the opportunities to get out, be active and try a new place. There’s no question that local is always better, so next time you’re out and about and looking for somewhere to stop for a bite to eat or a coffee – make it a point to go local. From fresh food markets, to cafes and other eateries, or retail and services, we have so many great businesses. If you love one of our local businesses, the best thing you can do is support them and tell others to help spread the word near and far. I hope you all have had a wonderful winter and have a sensational spring - I trust that you will find this program handy in your weekend planning. WE WANT YOUR

OF SALISBURY
The City of Salisbury is home to many creative people and it’s also home to a number of eye-catching pieces of public art. There are many diverse and unique art displays across the City, and while there are some that you may see on your daily commute, there are plenty that you may not be aware of. In this edition of Discover Salisbury, we’ve decided to shine a spotlight on some of the many new and exciting pieces of public art in our City and where you can find them. Don’t worry, we’ve done the hard work for you and have created a detailed list of public art that has been completed over the past couple of years. PLUS, the Library has recently launched their brand new library cards highlighting some of these wonderful murals located around the City of Salisbury. New members can choose f rom one of four new designs and for a limited amount of time, when you sign up for a membership, you will also receive a canvas tote library bag for FREE! Learn more about the story behind the artwork by simply scanning the QR code on the back of your card. How do I sign up? Visit one of our five library branches and bring a form of ID along with you, it’s that easy! For more information visit salisburylibrary.sa.gov.au or call 8406 8222

Resilient Friendship Mural, Mawson Lakes One of the newest additions to the City of Salisbury’s growing list of public art pieces, the Resilient Friendship Mural is painted on the Denison Centre in Mawson Lakes. The mural was painted by Guiyong Zhu to celebrate the City of Salisbury’s 20-year Sister City Agreement with Mobara City in Japan.
Para Hills Community Hub Garden Mural, Para Hills Located in the garden of the Para Hills Community Hub, on Wilkinson Road, this Aboriginal mural features local Senior Elder Frank Wanganeen and his grandson Joseph. The artwork was created by artists Elizabeth Close and Thomas Readett as part of the City of Salisbury’s World of Wellbeing project to promote resilience, positive health and wellbeing post-COVID-19.
Little Para Wildlife Mural, Salisbury Park This mural, located at Carisbrooke Park and painted by mother-daughter duo Melita and Keira Scott, aims to raise awareness of the importance of sustainability and its effect on our local wildlife. The flora and fauna in the artwork consist of species which inhabit the nearby Little Para River Corridor. This work recognises the conservation status of each of the species which are threatened, obscure, or beneficial to the ecology of the corridor.
Eyes of Our Elders Mural, Paralowie Artist Mike Makatron uses eyes to represent the wisdom of Elders and traditional owners along with themes of multiculturalism and sustainability. The eyes look out f rom the sky onto nature and the reserve. The pixelated colour features throughout the sky and symbolises the wide range of cultures present in the City of Salisbury. Eucalyptus flowering gumnuts, as well as the Sturt’s Desert Pea, are a nod to the native flora of South Australia.
Celestial Reflections Mural, Burton Located along Waterloo Corner Road, this eye-catching mural created by Marra Dreaming is based on the ‘Tapa Wodliparri’, which is the celestial river in the night sky, the Milky Way. For Kaurna people, the sky world explains and reflects their lives and the lands and waters around them.
Music Moves Me Mural, Salisbury A spectrum of colours was used to create the wonderful Music Moves Me mural in order to symbolise the emotions that music makes us feel. The wall, located on the side of local business Music Corner North on Wiltshire Street, was painted by artist Ella Simpson of Ink and Ruby Studios.

POLES Community members painting the town Stobie poles are far f rom the most colourful pieces of infrastructure, but with many located around the City of Salisbury they offer a great artistic opportunity. For many years, the City of Salisbury has understood the positive impact that public art has on the community, and is committed to developing ways to artistically improve the City. The Poles apART program encourages individuals and community groups to use their creative flair and turn the humble stobie pole into an eye-catching piece of public art.
Those who are interested in giving a local stobie pole a face-lift are being encouraged to follow the simple process on our website. So, what are you waiting for? Now is your chance to add some artistic brilliance to stobie poles throughout your neighbourhood. Residents can complete the project by themselves, round up their neighbours or local community groups and make it a joint effort. Many residents have already got involved and the City of Salisbury is more vibrant because of the Poles apART program.
For Council approvals and to make enquiries, please contact the City of Salisbury’s Community Planner Arts and Cultures on 8406 8222, or email: arts@salisbury.sa.gov.au
It was all hands on deck for the students of Karrendi Primary School when they lended a hand to Noel Aplin, a local resident who applied for the Poles ApART program but needed some help painting a number of poles on his street. The children designed and painted an array of patterns and pictures to liven up the stobie poles, leaving a bright and colourful street display and one very happy Noel.
