Appin Amenites BLOCk

Renowned local artist Joe Quilter created the Appin Amenities Block mural in 2023 as part of a Wollondilly Shire Council initiative to transform community spaces through vibrant street art. The mural depicts the Appin Koala, a local icon, holding a paint roller and ready to create its own mural, a playful nod to the area’s well-known koala statues and local wildlife. The project celebrates the region’s growing street art scene and highlights the Council’s strong commitment to supporting creativity and community pride across the Shire.

This mural was also proudly supported by STA’s Paint the Town.

Address: Appin Park – 4 Market St, Appin NSW 2560
