About this Article

In November, the Waukegan Public Library added three new sculptures to the Stimson Sculpture Garden in the courtyard on the east side of the building. Since only two of the sculptures were paid for by private donors, the library began to seek funding for the third sculpture entitled "Frog Prince Reading Book". Three generous donors came forward to fully finance the $4,240 sculpture.
