The Village will have a new gateway sculpture soon at the corner of
9th Ave. West and 12th St. West
Chrysalis Launcher was selected by Realize Bradenton's Public Art Selection Panel because they felt it portrayed the dynamism and creativity that characterizes the Village of the Arts, as well as communicating a sense of energy, growth and future development. The elongated, water-jet cut aluminum, oval wings seem to be flying out of the chrysalis-inspired base which will be installed on an angle that points towards the interior of the Village. The wing colors are derived from the colors of Village structures. Three additional sets of wings will be attached to lightpoles on the perimeter of the Village to signify additional entry points.
