A new set of outdoor sculptures has been installed on the Lemon Street Promenade, and residents were asked today to vote for their favorite via Facebook. Scroll down to see galleries by photographer Yasira Adams and a Facebook post where you can vote.
Artists from around the U.S. submitted 41 entries, and 10 were selected by a jury including local artists and representatives of the city of Lakeland and Polk Museum of Art.
The winner of the People’s Choice Award, based on Facebook voting, gets a $1,000 prize.
Here are the sculptures, starting with the one at Florida Avenue and proceeding along Lemon Street to Massachusetts Avenue:
