The City of Naperville Public Arts Program requests up to $5,000 of the SECA public art set-aside funding for CY24 for the temporary placement of an Olmec statue at the corner of Jackson and Eagle Street.

 

The statue is part of the “Olmec Trails: Culture and Legacy” project, a partnership of the College of DuPage Public Art Project, the DuPage Convention & Visitors Bureau and Mexican Cultural Center DuPage.
