    Published October 7 2014

    A new three-part, public art work in Bridle Trails that reflects the neighborhood's woodsy surroundings and equestrian culture will be dedicated on Saturday, October 11.

    Commissioned by the city's Public Art Program, "Homage," by artist Bruce Myers, will be dedicated during a community celebration, 11 a.m.-1 p.m., at the triangle median at 132nd Avenue Northeast and Northeast 40th Street. The dedication ceremony will take place at 11:30 a.m. In his work, Myers uses images of seeds, pinecones, spirals, braiding and horses to pay tribute to qualities residents of Bridle Trails cherish in their neighborhood.

    Members of the public are welcome to join the Bridle Trails community, Arts commissioners, Mayor Claudia Balducci and Myers at the celebration, which will include music, refreshments and remarks by some of those involved in the project.

    Bridle Trails residents voted on the public art commission through the city's Neighborhood Enhancement Program. A panel made up of neighborhood representatives, two arts professionals and a Arts commissioner who chaired the panel selected Myers and worked with him during the design process. The budget for the artwork was $35,000, funded through NEP.

    The art, featuring large boulders inlaid with bronze or carvings that depict natural and equestrian themes, is placed at three locations: 120th Avenue Northeast and Northeast 24th Street; 132nd Avenue Northeast and Northeast 40th Street; and 140th Avenue Northeast on the Bridle Crest Trail.

    The Bellevue Arts Program provides funding for arts organizations and artists working in the city, manages Bellevue's public art program and oversees implementation of the Cultural Compass and other initiatives. The Arts Commission, a seven-member volunteer group appointed by City Council, advises the Arts Program.
