Arts & Culture Map Talk - Jerilderie
In partnership with The CAD Factory, Western Riverina Arts is mapping out arts and culture across the Western Riverina area incorporating the local government areas of Leeton, Griffith, Murrumbidgee and Narrandera.
The mapping team from both organisations will be moving around the region and holding four open community discussions on arts and culture with the question; "What is valuable to you?".
Everyone is welcome to attend and no answer is too small or too large to discuss. Some examples of what is culturally valuable could relate to social, environmental, material, academic, scientific, emotional, historical or natural.
These discussions will form the basis for the mapping team who will then travel to all parts of the region and work on visualising and condensing this map to a form for everyone to enjoy.
The discussions will be informal and welcoming and a light morning and afternoon tea will be served. If you are unable to attend in person, a livestream link is available on WRA’s Facebook event page for each session.SAVE THE DATE:

The Department of Planning and Environment’s Water Group is seeking recent and historical flood information from the community. The department’s flood modelling teams will be available at face-to-face information sessions to accept flood information covering rural areas which will be used to calibrate the hydraulic models that underpin replacement southern floodplain management plans in the Murray, Murrumbidgee, Billabong Creek and Lachlan valleys.
Rural floodplain management plans are the basis for coordinating flood work development in critical areas. They map the floodways and set rules and assessment criteria for flood work approvals.
With widespread flooding across the southern Murray–Darling Basin in 2022, the department is seeking feedback and information about this flood event to help develop the new floodplain management plans, including digital photos from the 2022 floods, historical flood imagery, and descriptions of local flood behaviour.
You can send your information, including exact locations, dates and times, to floodplain.planning@dpie.nsw.gov.au, or you can register to attend upcoming face-to-face sessions in Jerilderie, Deniliquin, Moama, Barham, Forbes, Condobolin, Lake Cargelligo, Hillston, Narrandera, Darlington Point, Hay and Moulamein by visiting the department’s website.
