Lake Highland Preparatory School will be adorning their athletic fields with a giant sculpture of a sneaker.
The over-sized shoe was proposed by the LHPS Arts League and will be located on school property at the corner of Lake Highland Drive and Terrence Boulevard, adjacent to the Orlando Urban Trail. See map below. The pedestal will be covered with handmade tiles, fired and painted by LHPS students.
I’d donate my kids as I remember she was ticked since she had so many offspring she didn’t know what to do
Really? Complaining about art?
Bungalower No What would be awesome is if they had some old lady yell at passers by from inside the shoe or offer compliments to passers by. Depends on her mood on any given day 😛 Afterall, the story does say that there was indeed an old woman who lived in a shoe 😛
well, they sound awesome
Bungalower Nah, only Christmas Florida wold do that.
I can’t stop laughing at this
Bahahaha! It will remind me to shave my legs…or do more squat-lunges
maybe they’ll plant a tall cactus in the top so it looks like a skinny leg
As am I. Also, as a resident that lives on that trail and uses it almost daily. It’ll be cool to look at all the time! =P
We’re excited to see how they paint it
I think it’s actually pretty cool. Why not have cool sculptures. Everyone wants this city to grow and expand. Art is a huge part of that. It’s what makes Orlando unique. It’s what makes me proud to say I live here.
Whoever thought of this needs a giant shoe up their a—.
They’re in the process of swapping the one close to where this statue is going in but they swapped it for the same kind… So I think the same results should be expected. I’d like to see the nicer OUC fountains like are installed down at Lake Ivanhoe
I’m sure all the parents that shell out all that money for their kids to attend this school are just thrilled about this.
I actually think they swapped some of them out.
How about donating decent water fountains. The trail is great but this is the last thing that it needs
What an excellent use of funds.
Rich School Problems.
You know what they say about giant sneaker sculptures…
Dumb. Don’t want that garbage on the trail.
Is there any reasoning behind it?
whats the point?
