Community sculpture project to be unveiled in Box
1:14pm Monday 6th August 2012 in News
A circle of sculptures illustrating the beginning of the world will be unveiled at Box Recreation Ground this week.
The striking design was put together by a community group under the title Box Rock Circus Project.
Corsham Area Board gave the project £1,046 to help create the sculptures which are contained within a seven metre diameter circle.
A special unveiling will take place on August 9 at 11am.
Alan MacRae, Corsham Area Board chairman and Wiltshire Council portfolio holder for libraries, heritage and culture said: "These sculptures will stop people in their tracks and provide a real educational tool in helping people to think about how the earth was formed millions of years ago.
" In my culture portfolio I am involved in many arts projects around the county and it's great to see one come to fruition right here in the Corsham area.”
