Rochester artist Jeff P. Garland’s sculptures perk up the park with life until Aug. 23. Go and visit with your very eyes what the artist calls a “celebration of the very thing that brings the prairie to life: the wind, rain, sun and animals.” These works of art located outside the Botanical Gardens are also for purchase. Inquire within. Garland’s outdoor sculptures can also be found locally at Henson Robinson Zoo (cheetah and butterfly), Hazel Dell School (ostrich), St. Aloysius School (St. Al) and Chatham Library (wild prairie).
