The City of Peterborough and the Peterborough chapter of the UN Peacekeepers Association will be unveiling the design for the UN Peacekeepers Monument on Saturday, July 1st.
The event will take place at 10 a.m. at the north end of the Louis Street Parking lot at Charlotte and Louis Streets — the location of the new urban street park where the monument will be installed.
The public will have an opportunity to view models of the monument and learn about the project from members of the design team, Studio F Minus of Toronto.
The event will go rain or shine and light refreshments will be served.
The UN Peacekeepers Monument Project was developed in partnership with the Peterborough chapter of the UN Peacekeepers Association. Studio F Minus from Toronto was selected after a nation-wide call for proposals resulted in 24 submissions from across the country.
The design consists of two 14-foot mirrored sculptures, and is expected to be completed along with the new park in late 2018.
