SCULPTURE

Racing ahead
on competition

“EVERYTHING IS about to gel.’’

Ella Parkinson,
former president of
Community Arts

the executive director

and

the North Vancouver
Council, is

describing the

group’s fundraising efforts for their upcoming
sculpture competition. The winning creation is
expected to be completed by the official opening

date of Expo &6.

“We've got a number of
soft commitments, but I
can’t put a figure on the
amount we've had
ecommitted,’’ says
Parkinson. *‘We're currently
in the negotiating stage with
several companies and I
wouldn’t want to endanger
any of those talks by
revealing details.”’

The NVCAC’s budget for
the competition 1s $150,000,
with half that amount
already pledged by the City
of North Wancouver.

Parkinson says the group’s
request for $10,000 from the
District of North Vancouver
has not yet been confirmed,
adding the NVCAC will be
approaching the District
with another proposal within
the next week.

“We're going to suggest
that perhaps they could
consider staggering their
contribution over a couple
of years,’’ says Parkinson.
‘We're planning on= ap-

proaching West Vancouver
as well. Our mandate is for
the City and District, but we
think of ourselves as the
North Shore, not three dif-
ferent municipalities.’
Fundraising efforts, which
started February 29, are
expected to continue.
Parkinson says almost 40
entries have been received
from artists to date.
However, the site where the
winning entry will be located
in the waterfront park at the
Lonsdale Quay has yet to be
supphted with infill. lt seems
the park, which is being ex-
tended into Burrard Inlet, ts
not yet completed.
Parkinson says the
NVCAC is. hoping park

construction will be finished
soon, so that artists can be
given their criteria for the
competiuon.
