AmericaJR’s Gloria and Jerome Rzucidlo recently visited the Harris Gardens at North Central Michigan College. The Harris Gardens are now not only a sculpture garden but also a beautifully landscaped garden area with benches and pathways. Each of the 16 sculptures are identified with a plaque. Maps identifying each of the works are available. The variety of artistic styles in each of the sculptures is dramatic. The artists who created these pieces of art come from across the U.S. The sculptures are made from a variety of materials include steel, bronze, copper, and stone.
