Part 2 – with photos! – Takoma Park’s new Sculpture Trail

Here’s a follow-up to last week’s post (read that one for more details on the exciting project) after attending the unveiling ceremony
this past Sunday. The trail is easily accessible along Carroll Avenue, see
the downloadable trail map. Below, you’ll find photos of all 8 bike sculptures, although the map does not make reference to the one inside the park across from the TSSP food coop, only to the one on the exterior of the park.

not on map, located in B.Y. Morrison Park across from food coop

#7 “Wheels in the Sky” by Howard Connelly Design at Takoma Junction (across from coop)

#5 “A Musical Bike” by james Colwell at 7030 Carroll Avenue at Takoma Bicycle

#4 “Old town Shopper” by Richard Lorr at Old Takoma Clock Tower at Laurel & Carroll

#2 “Germinating Seed” by Richard Lorr at 6930 Carroll Avenue

#6 “The Amazing Alien Egg” by Alison Baker at 201 Ethan Allen Avenue at TPSS Co-op

#1 “Turtle” by Howard Connelly Design at 341 Cedar St, NW, DC at the Culture Shop

#3 “Mandala” by Robert Wertz at 6903 Laurel Avenue

Also I should note that #3 on the map was initially hard to find because I
was looking for it on the sidewalk, it is actually mounted on a wrought iron
fence along the sidewalk. Thanks and congratulations to all involved! If anyone
knows of any other recycled public art within the watershed, please let me know
- it’s a growing interest of mine.
