This is a sculpture garden off of the main path in Lauritzen Garden. It honors Omaha's Lithuanian sister city Šiauliai. The sculptures were carved by Saulés Takas. They represent Lithuanian culture and stories. The intricate plants and animals carved into the seats is very good, at the story of Jūraté and Kastytis is fascinating; a woodman and a sea goddess fall in love.
This quilt was produced in 1982 as part of the centennial celebration for Kingman. It has historical scenes, and current buildings. It also has cultural depictions. I think all the panels of the quilt are depicted.
