Dancing with Sea Lions
The Dancing With Sea Lions project began as a fundraiser for the 20th Anniversary of the Florence Events Center. The volunteers of the Florence Arts, Culture, and Entertainment nonprofit group (previously known as the Friends of the FEC) headed up this project in conjunction with the Florence Events Center Staff. Twenty life size sea lion sculptures were each painted by a different artist. All of them were displayed with their sponsors along the Oregon Coast till October of 2016, when they were then purchased by businesses and individuals. Fifteen of them are still publicly displayed in Florence and near by coastal locations. See our 'Where are they now' map for their current locations, and check our blog for updates. Share your Dancing Sea Lion pics with us and we'll add them to our Gallery of images.
It's a Wild Thing
It's a Wild Thing was created by artist Ron Hildenbrand. She can be found dancing on the north end of the Historic Alsea Bay Bridge Interpretive Center in Waldport, OR, just before the bridge on the West side of Hwy 101. She was purchased by Sandra Guntrum and is dedicated in memory of her mother, Bunny Guntrum.
Originally sponsored by the Port of Siuslaw.
Location: Historic Alsea Bay Bridge Interpretive Center, Waldport, OR
