The Friends of the Public Garden is excited to announce the launch of a plan to design and install permanent lighting of the statues on each block of the Commonwealth Avenue Mall. The first project will be the Morison statue in the Spring of 2019, followed by the Garrison and Collins statues.
In addition to lighting installation, this project will include repointing of stonework, restoration of granite surrounds, walkways and turf around each statue as needed. The projected budget for the first three statues is $500,000.
We are currently raising funds for the Commonwealth Avenue Mall Statue Lighting. If you’d like to help, you can donate online here or by sending a check in the mail. For more information, email Margaret Pokorny at mpok384@gmail.com, or call 617-723-8144.
