Northglenn Arts and Humanities Foundation to Unveil Six New Sculptures, 6/20

The Northglenn Arts and Humanities Foundation (NAHF) will unveil six new sculptures-on-loan at the award-winning E.B. Rains Jr. Memorial Park on June 20, 2012 at 6:00 p.m. Artists will be on hand to answer questions about their pieces during a walking tour after the ceremony. The sculptures will remain in the park through May of 2013. 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 12th 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.

The first concert of Northglenn’s annual free summer concert series–themed “Back to the Bayou” this year–will immediately follow the unveiling ceremony at 6:30 p.m. with the Felonius Smith Trio.

The Northglenn Arts and Humanities Foundation (NAHF) is a 501(c)3 organization that provides funding for quality youth theatre, public art, and other cultural endeavors in our community. NAHF was founded in 1990.
