APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Houdini Plaza could get a “selfie sculpture” to encourage people to post photos about the area on social media.
Appleton Downtown Inc. would install the piece, which would 12 feet long, 7 feet high, and about 4 feet wide.
“The sculpture is being specifically designed and created to provide an interactive experience. The design is based around Appleton Downtown, Inc.’s “One Great Place” brand which features locator pins that will have cutouts perfect for photos! This sculpture is intended to be a focal point downtown,” wrote city economic development specialist Lily Paul in the memo to staff and council.
The design includes “pins” on which the titles could be changed based on the event.
The hope is to have the piece installed before the NFL Draft starts on April 24.
Several city committees need to review the idea, including the Park and Recreation Committee Monday night. It could go to the full Common Council for review March 19.
