Make Your Bid to Support Art in Dedham, MA! 

This is a once in a lifetime chance to have public art in your collection! Through the summer and fall of 2012 fifteen artist-painted fiberglass crouching rabbit sculptures were located across Dedham, Massachusetts. The project aimed to generate enthusiasm for art and raise funds for the continued promotion of art in the community. Through the crouching rabbit form, Dedham celebrated its history as the home of the revered Dedham Pottery.

Two of the fifteen sculptures are unavailable for bidding, "Bengal Bunny" by Sal D'Antona and "Leroy" by Jill Barry and Mike Glowacki. 

Each sculpture was painted by local artists and sponsored by local businesses, individuals, and organizations. At the conclusion of several months of public display, the completed sculptures will be auctioned off to support future arts projects in Dedham!
