Butterfly - Enid, OK

Enid Walking Trail
​Just east of Parkway between Seneca and Ponca
Approx. 12.75' x 10.5' x 12.5' tall
The City of Enid's Public Arts Commission of Enid (PACE) posted an RFQ for touchable public art along Enid's walking trail, and the result is painted metal sculptures that represent the lifecycle of a Monarch Butterfly - a ​Caterpillar, Chrysalis Circles, and Butterfly!

THANK YOU to Wesley Spencer with SpenCo Metal Works for building this metal butterfly! This is for viewing and stretching, but not for climbing!
