In addition to the 31 bronze and stainless-steel sculptures there, the Rotary Sculpture Garden Board will provide:
- Coupons for a free ice cream item at Jack’s Ice Cream truck, which will be on site.
- A performance from Joplin High School’s Strolling Strings at 3:00 pm.
- Quick portraits by sketch artists Kim and Jesse.
- Light refreshments.
- Opportunities to chat with board members and discuss plans for the Garden and how you can help.
The public is encouraged to attend and consider becoming a Friend of the Garden to support and enhance the Sculpture Garden.
