The Bradenton Beach ScenicWAVES committee, which oversees improvements to the scenic highway portion of Gulf Drive, was asked to consider installing a kinetic wind sculpture by Utah-based artist Lyman Whitaker.
Whitaker is a sculptor with more than 30 years of hand-building metal wind sculptures.
And members of the Anna Maria Island Garden Club are keen on the work, proposing installations in each of the three island cities.
“I am on this wind sculpture committee,” ScenicWAVES member Shawn Mayers told the group during a meeting Dec. 7 at city hall. “We’re going to be approaching Holmes Beach and Bradenton Beach to see if there would be interest in having such a program and sculptures in those cities.”
ScenicWAVES is a citizen advisory committee that represents the Bradenton Beach Scenic Highway Corridor Management Entity for the Florida Department of Transportation Designated Scenic Highway Program as well as the Waterfronts Florida Partnership Program.
