Brookfield Connecticut

HORSE SCULPTURES:

These are the first pieces of Public Art in the Town of Brookfield, made possible by generous grants and donations, including Union Savings Bank and the State of Connecticut. The project was spearheaded by the Brookfield Arts Commission who issued the Call to Artists, as well as did the fundraising, for a project in which not one cent of taxpayers money was used. The Horse Sculptures are created by the artist Peter Busby of Cornwall Bridge, CT. Photograps by Joe Dolen.
