Public art to be unveiled in Northglenn
Contributed by: Kelley Baily on 6/2/2008

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 25, 2008 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 2009. 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 eighth 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.

Northglenn's annual free summer concert series will open with rhythm and blues band Soul School immediately following the unveiling ceremony.

The Northglenn Arts and Humanities Foundation (NAHF) is a 501(c)3 organization committed to maintaining and nurturing the cultural arts in the Denver, Colorado area's north metro communities. NAHF was founded in 1990.
