This bronze sculpture (48 x 60) stands in front of the Ardmore Water Park on 3rd Avenue NE. It was created by Gary Lee Price in 1999. It is standing on a circular concrete pad, which is encircled by three rows of brick.
It depicts three young children of different ethnic backgrounds, holding hands and dancing around in a circle. On their faces are expressions of pure joy. The sculpture epitomizes the goal of the sculptor, which as he says, is to "Lift the Human Spirit Through Sculpture." He certainly does. This piece has a total feeling of movement. If you listen carefully, you can hear their happy squeals and feel the swish of their dancing.
