All roads lead to Eugowra

All roads lead to Eugowra on 12 and 13 April as both mural artists and competitors in the NSW Utility Dog Championships converge on the community.

This weekend is the annual Murals Most Wanted gathering, with 14 artists to gather to work on repairing and restoring two of the murals on the local art trail.

Eugowra's mural trail is a feature for locals and visitors alike, with artists becoming friends as they give their time each year to tell the community's stories through art.

This year they'll be working to refresh the Rural Fire Service mural, which you see as you enter Eugowra from Forbes.

It honours Theo Wykamp, who had 50 years service to the century-old RFS, and the many volunteers who stepped up to fight the fires of December 2001.

The NSW Farmers mural has been in storage since the 14 November 2022 flood event, with the team to repair it to be put back on display this weekend.

Mural weekend markets return for the Saturday morning, they'll be at Apex Park with visitors encouraged to take a walk around and explore the town, its shops and the stories told through the murals.

Over at the Showground, they're hosting the NSW Utility Dog Championships with three big days of competition expected.

There'll be plenty of dogs and handlers putting their skills to the test in the paddock and yard.

If you're planning to watch the dogs for a while, catering is available from the Fat Parcel food van on site from 8am to 2pm.
