Crase Street, Kapunda, South Australia.
Description
Observe the windows and doors of the original Stable buildings belonging to the Hotel.
Currently used as store-rooms, the stables were formerly used to house horses, stable hands and tack associated with the Hotel's business and the Kidman horse sales. The horse sales (reputably
the largest in the southern hemisphere at that time) were held in the area adjacent to the eastern boundary of the hotel (now a public car-park).
Kapunda artist MALCOLM CRAIG designed and hand-painted the ground-floor images, imagining the doors and windows as viewpoints into the stable building to illustrate its possible inhabitants and contents.
The mural was substantially FUNDED through a 'Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal' grant early in 2017. The donor supporting this grant was the Thyne Reid Foundation.
Additional funds came from Kapunda Mural Town Project through local donations.
