CLEARWATER â Many living creatures call Crest Lake Park home. With the help of a local artist, the park will also be the new home of five stainless ones.
The City Council on Feb. 18 signed off on paying Donald Gialanella almost $62,000 to create the public art for the park, which has been undergoing a $6.4 million renovation the past year.
âMr. Gialanellaâs work is based on the fauna of the Crest Lake Park,â said Christopher Hubbard, cultural affairs coordinator for the city. âThey are all different applications of creatures that live around the park, as they were identified by the community as very important to the nature and the liveability of the park.â
