Art Leaving E.B. Rains Jr. Memorial Park
May 4, 2009
Northglenn, CO — The Northglenn Arts and Humanities Foundation (NAHF) has begun the process of removing the current six sculptures-on-loan at the award-winning E.B. Rains Jr. Memorial. The sculptures have been on display in the park since June of 2008. Six new sculptures chosen for the 2009/2010 season will be unveiled at a public ceremony at the park on June 24 at 6:00 p.m. Artists will be on hand to answer questions about their pieces during a walking tour after the ceremony. Northglenn's annual free summer concert series will open with local calypso favorite Pan Jumbies immediately following the unveiling ceremony at 6:30 p.m. The new sculptures will remain in the park through May of 2010. The park is located at 11801 Community Center Drive; one-half mile south of 120th Avenue and Grant St. in Northglenn.
The new sculptures are part of Northglenn's ninth annual Art on Parade program, an on-loan outdoor sculpture exhibit funded by NAHF and the Adams County Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD). Artists loan their pieces for one year. Park patrons vote for their favorite each season. Dubbed "The People's Choice," the winning sculpture is purchased by NAHF and gifted to the City of Northglenn for permanent placement in the city. The sculptures are also available for sale to the public.
