Public Display

The design proposals for the sculpture trail went on public display at Cobtree Park. This will be Phase 3 of the regeneration programme which will also include a new visitor centre. One of the four sculptures will be located next to the building and will signify the start of the trail.

I was on hand to answer questions from the public about the concepts for the sculptures. It was great getting feedback on the proposed artworks, which had all been positively received. I was also pleased that I had the chance to hear first hand accounts from local residents about their connection to the park and their memories of Maidstone zoo.
