After fits and starts and a COVID delay, a long-awaited Native American sculpture will be unveiled in downtown Polson at 6 p.m. Thursday evening, May 23, at the corner of Third Street and Main.

Artist Cameron Decker presents his large-scale sculpture incorporating a trout, a stone, an arrowhead and a log. “honors the heritage of the Salish and Kootenai Tribes and their deep connection to the lake. This piece reflects the region’s history and relation to the natural landscape. We invite the community to join us for this significant event as we celebrate art, history, and the ongoing efforts to preserve our natural environment.”

The sculpture is created from Pal Tiya, a concrete-like weatherproof sculpting medium for permanent outdoor art. The artwork was commissioned by the Polson Community Development Agency for their final beautification project.
