As a way to mark the gateway into this new and emerging mixed-use north-end neighbourhood, Kelowna香蕉视频直播檚 Public Art program is working with MAKE Studio to create an installation.

Lodestar will be based at the intersection of Richter St. and Clement Avenue and will be made of timber to form a mountainous peak and will soar 36-foot into the sky on Kelowna香蕉视频直播檚 historic industrial lands, just outside the RCMP Detachment.

Robert Parlane, parks and buildings planning manager with the city said the sculpture marks a new meeting place for the expanding north downtown core and celebrates Kelowna香蕉视频直播檚 prosperity and growth through forestry.

Traffic will be impacted briefly as installation begins. The piece will be complete at the end of June.

Lodestar won香蕉视频直播檛 be the only installation taking place in Kelowna either, located at the north end of Boyce-Gyro Beach, the sculpture Horizon will act as a window through which to view the environment.

香蕉视频直播淭he goal of the public art program is to culturally enrich public spaces and these new pieces play an important role in shaping both the collective identity and personal experience of our city,香蕉视频直播� said Parlane.
