What's Your Story? Queanbeyan Portrait Mural Project

Stories are a timeless link to places, people, memories, history, experiences and events. Stories are powerful and serve as the common ground to connect us with each other.

What’s your story? We are working on a series of projects where everyone’s story is important.

Over the coming months, we will have two projects where we want to hear your stories. We want to capture the strength, diversity and history of Queanbeyan-Palerang through stories. Everyone’s contribution is welcome, including yours! First up is the Queanbeyan Portrait Mural Project.

We have been successful with a grant application to deliver a transformational portrait mural in the Queanbeyan CBD and we need your input so that it tells Queanbeyan’s story in an authentic way.

Submit an entry of the face you believe best represents Queanbeyan, together with a story of the person in the photo. Upload your photo and their story via the story board below.

This process of storytelling will tap into the collective distinct persona of Queanbeyan and begin to bring it to life through public art. The successful mural artist will select the subject matter from submitted competition entries and the face will be painted in the style of the mural artist.

Have a read of the terms and conditions in the entry form and guidelines found in the document library on the right. You can also enter via hard copy or email by using this document.
