and Karen Duquette,

Lee and Karen Duquette briefly explored the Vogel Schwartz
Sculpture Garden located in Riverfront Park on the banks of the Arkansas
River. The garden is ideal for photographers and visitors with a sense
of whimsy. Admission was free on this date. But since Lee and Karen Duquette
visited this place a bit late in the day, Karen Duquette was actually
just too tired to take a lot of photographs. (That is a first for
her). But she did enjoy a relaxing walk around the park.

Below: The concept of this
proposed women's monument was inspired by a letter from Elizabeth Cady
Stanton to Lucretia Mott in which she wrote about the power of words
and deeds: “Every Word We Utter, every act we perform, waft unto innumerable
circles, beyond.” I wanted to capture the collective energy from all
women who have made this happen, as well as acknowledge that we still
need to keep moving as we strive for equality.
"With her sculpture, Jane DeDecker has captured the significance
of the 19th Amendment to our state and our nation, Little Rock is fortunate
to be able to add her work to its impressive collection of outdoor art"
quote by Ava Hutchinson, Governor |
