Sculpture
Walk 2007
UPtown
Columbus, Inc. has partnered with artists from
all over the United
States (including Columbus' very own - George
Goddard) to showcase 15 unique
and incredibly creative works of public art.
The artists' diverse sculptures are on display
in the 1000 and 1100 Blocks
of Broadway in Uptown Columbus through September
2008. The sculptures are
owned by the artists and loaned to the exhibit
for the year. Each piece will
remain on display and are available to the
public for sale.
Our community has the opportunity to select the
People's Choice Award, which
will be purchased by UPtown Columbus, Inc. for
permanent display in a
prominent area of Uptown. The winning piece will
be announced during
Broadway Springfest 2008 in late spring.
