Installation: Petersen's "Panthers" FOUND!
For 20 years, University Museums searched for a pair of larger-than-life-sized bronze panthers created by Christian Petersen for a Rhode Island estate in the early 1920s. In the summer of 2010, the Panthers were found, and during VEISHEA 2012 they become a permanent part of ISU's campus art collection. Join University Museums as we install this new to the collection sculpture right after the VEISHEA parade concludes. Free tattoos and treats!
