FINAL SELECTIONS COMING
Councilman Burrell said recently there were about seventy-two submissions from around the country for two new public art pieces to be placed in the center of the new 'Flowerlock/Veterans Drive' round about and the CR 32/13 one near the airport.
Last March the city council asked the Eastern Shore Art Center's Committee on Public Art (COPA) to solicit proposals from artists, evaluate each, and make recommendations to the council.
Themes were to be 'downtown Fairhope' and 'airport' respectively.
Burrell said the city council will consider a final four chosen by COPA -- and choose the two winners during an upcoming council meeting.
Burrell said the goal is for art at all of the roundabouts; 'Cat Tail Sculpture' was donated and installed at CR 13/CR 48 in 2019. Gayfer Road and CR 13 being the final one.
