"Stride" finds a Home in C-U

Stride
Beth Nybeck

The Public Art League is pleased to announce its purchase of Stride by Beth Nybeck.  The sculpture is installed in the parking lot in front of the Orpheum Children's Science Museum and was purchased with funds donated by the Robeson Family Benefit Fund.

Regarding Stride, the artist states:  "The spirit of discovery is one that needs to be equipped with courage.  The journey of uncovering the unknown is filled with fear and excitement.  This sculpture explores the awkward isolation of moving onward as a unique individual."

Thank you to the Robeson Family Benefit Fund for making the purchase of Stride possible.
