Art Detective Challenge

Are you ready to take the weekly Art Detective Challenge? Download this week's clues. Tour the town and visit each sculpture. Tell us the title of each sculpture that matches each clue. But don't be fooled! Some clues may seem like they point to one sculpture, but careful evaluation may point you in another direction. If businesses are closed, look for Art...Well-Groomed sculptures in a prominent window at that location. Have fun, and good luck!
