A major community grant will provide an opportunity to learn about both Brookfield’s past and contemporary American craft with the creation of a piece of monumental public art. Headed by the Brookfield Center, under the guidance of artist-in-residence Peter Kirkiles, a group of Brookfield residents of all ages will research and create a sculpture celebrating the history of Brookfield’s industries along the Still River. The art will be unveiled during Brookfield’s 225th anniversary celebration and will be permanently installed in the Four Corner’s District.
