Luanne Kokolis of the RHEDC’s Quality of life committee spoke at City Council meeting Monday night to give an update on the Walkway on 139 Main.
The RHEDC has partnered with Rock Hill Design to make the walkway a work of art. The walkway and work of art is meant to represent freedom and will contain 9 stools to honor those who participated in the Friendship Nine sit in.
The artists have pitched the idea of naming the area ‘Freedom Walkway.”
R0ck Hill educators are currently working on an interactive and educational curriculum to make the area more meaningful to Rock Hill citizens. The committee expects the dedication for the art to be in November.
