“Did you hear or see anything unusual? Maybe a beautiful sculpture just made an appearance in your backyard or garbage/recycling bin this week? Were you dared by your friends to do something silly that you now regret? No problem, simply reach out to the FAC and return the work.” said The Fenelon Arts Committee (FAC) on Facebook. “Rosalinde Baumgartner, now in her 90s, has been a part of this exhibition since its inception in 2024 and we are so grateful. While installing earlier this year, she shared with the committee how proud she is of this work and believes it to be one of her very best sculptures.”
Anyone with information, photos, video footage, or who observed suspicious activity is encouraged to privately email or message the FAC. You may also report directly to the OPP.
