Dedham Public Art 2012
Rabbit Project
In 2012 fifteen artist-painted, fiberglass crouching rabbit sculptures were placed throughout Dedham in public locations for display over several months. The project generated enthusiasm for art and raised funds for the continued promotion of art in the community. The crouching rabbit form celebrated Dedham's history as the home of the revered Dedham Pottery, which was produced in Dedham from 1896 to 1943. The Dedham rabbit is an iconic image that is recognized worldwide.
