Public Hearing | Grass Lake Nature Park Public Art Project
|
|
The community is invited to project artist Abe Singer's concept design presentation for the Grass Lake Nature Park Public Art Project on Thursday, April 11, at 6pm. This public hearing, part of a regularly scheduled Arts Commission meeting, is the opportunity to provide comment to the Arts Commission on the public art design.
The Grass Lake Nature Park Public Art Project centers around a large (10' diameter x 23' long) mild steel water tank (3/8" thick) on the park property to be repurposed for three sculptural elements to be sited in the park:
· One bird blind (approx. 6' x 10') along the boardwalk for viewing of the birds without being seen by them.
· Two entry elements sited at the entrances to the park along Harrison Avenue and Kaiser Road, welcoming visitors to the park and continuing the use of the steel tank material as a theme throughout the park. These entry elements can be more artistic, and sized at the artist's discretion.
At 195.71 acres, the park contains the headwaters of Green Cove Creek and one of the most environmentally intact wetland systems in northern Thurston County. Over 100 bird species and 200 plant species have been recorded in the park.
