The Monroe Beautification Committee dedicated the new art sculpture at the south entrance to the city Wednesday, June 21. The sculpture welcomes visitors and celebrates the rich heritage of the city.

The sculptor, Wade Skinner, beautification committee members, and Mayor Paul Canter attended the ceremony. The sculpture was made possible through a generous grant from the Benton County Cultural Coalition, the local agency of the Oregon Cultural Trust, as well as local businesses, private donors, and the City of Monroe.

The Monroe Beautification Committee, a subcommittee of the City Council, is comprised of citizen volunteers, several of whom are graduates of the Ford Family Foundation’s Ford Institute Leadership Program.
