Sculpture "Unity" Unveiled
|
| On July 4, the Foundation unveiled a sculpture, "Unity", at
Charleston's Haddad Park. The artwork was the result of a year-long
collaboration between Dr. Cubert Smith, a Charleston artist and Director
of the City of Charleston's Environmental Resources Office, and Vladimir
Smirnoff, a sculptor from Korolev. The dedication ceremony went
flawlessly, the rain clearing away as the ceremony began. The project
could not have been undertaken, much less completed, without the backing
of Charleston mayor G. Kemp Melton. Mayor Melton lent his support to the
project and allowed Dr. Smith the time to complete the sculpture. The
Charleston-Korolev Connection, under Dr. Smith, provided a huge amount of
help to the project. Thanks to all those involved in making this
international undertaking such a success. |
