Cochrane is set to mark a major milestone in its cultural development with the unveiling of three new public art installations at a community celebration on Saturday, May 10.
The event, scheduled from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at The Station at Cochrane Crossing, will officially celebrate the completion of the Cochrane Crossing Civic Plaza Art Project. The permanent sculptures reflect both Cochrane’s cultural heritage and its vision for the future.
Crews began installing the three sculptures yesterday and are expected to be on site again today. You won’t be able to see them, though — they’re being kept under wraps until the unveiling.
