Two related public events will take place at Golden Hills Park on September 12th at 3:00 p.m. : a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new mural, commissioned by the Cottonwood Heights Arts Council, and a commemoration of Edy Wright’s life at a newly installed engraved stone placed by her family.
Please stop by the park and experience this new art landmark and reminder of the power of community leadership for yourself—where art and history meet in full color.
A stunning new mural now brightens the landscape at Golden Hills Park, unveiled by the Cottonwood Heights Arts Council in celebration of Cottonwood Height’s 20th anniversary! Titled “Metamorphic Seasons,” the artwork features a vibrant stained-glass butterfly set against the majestic mountain views that define our “City Between the Canyons.” The butterfly symbolizes the transformation, growth, and the enduring power of community, as well as our shared appreciation for nature.
The mural was created by Cottonwood Heights resident Jeff Anderson, a watercolor artist known for his dynamic use of color and nature-inspired themes.
Wildflowers in the stained-glass foreground also serve as a tribute to a community resident who was a leader in organizing and petitioning for the creation of Golden Hills Park. Edy Wright whose tireless advocacy and vision made Golden Hills Park a reality, began living in the community east of Wasatch Blvd in the 70’s. She sadly passed away earlier this year, but her enormous contribution to the wellbeing of our community will not be forgotten.
