This addition to the collection
was sculpted by one of our board
advisors (Pat Madison). Entitled
Return of the Cutthroat,
it commemorates the return of
trout to Clear Creek, and is
placed between Clear Creek and
the Golden Hotel.
Cowboy's Day Off, was
unveiled during the candlelight
walk in December 2002. This
piece sits on the corner of
Washington and 11st Street, in
front of the Golden Hotel.
The Cowboy is on display at
the corner of 13th Street and
Miner's Alley (at the entrance to
the Miner's Alley Theatre).
Another recent addition to the
collection is displayed on the South
bank of Clear Creek, East of the
Washington Street bridge, behind the
new Clear Creek Commons building.
Another school of fish are a great
complement to the creek-side area at
the base of the new Washington
Avenue bridge!
Newsboy was unveiled on December
5th, 2003, on the night of the
annual Golden Candlelight Walk.
On
December 13, 2003, Senator Ben
Nighthorse Campbell helped us unveil
"Nighthorse on the Mesa," which used
Senator Campbell's image as the
basis for the figure of the Cheyenne
Warrier.
In
early February, 2004, the final
piece was installed:
Our
smallest piece is on display in the
main dining room at Fossil Trace.
This piece was purchased jointly by
the Golden Civic Foundation, the
Rotary Club of Golden, and the City
of Golden.
Checkmate, located at the
intersection of Highway 93 and Pine
Ridge Road, was dedicated on
