Talented local artist Gordon McLean is helping to create new attractions in Centenary Park in Airdrie with a series of stunning sculptures carved from tree stumps and trunks, following the damage caused by Storm Éowyn earlier this year, bringing new life and creativity to this much-loved green space.
Gordon’s captivating creations have been made possible through a partnership between our Community Partnership Team and the Friends of Centenary and West End Park community group. One of his standout pieces, a carved lion’s face, can be seen from the main road and has already become a talking point for passers-by and park visitors, with more imaginative works set to follow.
Council Leader Councillor Jim Logue visited the park to view the artwork and show support for the ongoing improvements commenting, “This is a fantastic example of community action and creative vision coming together to enhance one of our local parks.”
