In front of Gunnedah’s Civic Centre in Chandos Street winds a colourful reminder of the Dreamtime.

The award-winning Rainbow Serpent Water Feature realises a long-term dream after local Kamilaroi women persisted for almost 20 years to bring this important story to life. The Kamilaroi artists have drawn on their culture, traditions, families, history and experiences to create this unique water feature that includes 29 circular mosaics surrounding the rainbow serpent which channels water into a small pool.

The Rainbow Serpent Water feature is the final stage of the TRAC Sculpture Court Public Art Project at the Gunnedah Cultural Precinct, which also delivered The River Red Gum Tree in the Mooki Room and the Water Mural in the Mooki Courtyard.
