Minneapolis Parks and Recreation

The Minneapolis Parks and Recreation Department have undertaken a very exciting and unusual bronze project. They are constructing an area in a park where they will place bronze tiles on stainless steel stands that showcases a broad range of animal, plant and insect life.

The idea behind this project is to give children a place to come and visit these bronze plaques with paper and crayons or pencils and make rubbings of the various bronzes located throughout the park. In this gallery, you can see only a few of these plaques, however, 36 unique bronze tiles were actually created for this project.
