Final Showing of PARTA Veterans Memorial Proposals

Kent residents will get their last chance for public views this month of the three proposals for a new veterans memorial at the PARTA transit center under construction in downtown Kent.

PARTA will hold two final, public showings of the three proposals on Dec. 11 at 4 and 6 p.m. The proposals will be available for viewing in the boardroom at PARTA's Summit Street facility by Dix Stadium.

The three artists who submitted proposals for the new memorial are:

• George Danhires, of Kent
• Brinsley Tyrrell, of Ravenna
• Mary Roberts, of Acworth, GA, and Timothy and Daniel Gay of Savannah, GA

PARTA will take all comments from the public along with input from its advisory selection committee in order to select a winning proposal by the end of the year.
