Cedar Rapids Waterloo Iowa City & Dubuque, IA, October 15, 2026 —
A new sculpture park is planned for May’s Island in Cedar Rapids, with its initial installation funded by a donation from Cedar Rapids Bank and Trust. The installation is scheduled to be unveiled in 2028.
The announcement outlines a planned public-art project, but the information provided does not identify the sculpture, its artist or the size of the donation. It also does not specify when installation work is expected to begin or provide a more precise unveiling date.
Further details about the park were not provided, including how many works it may eventually include, who is organizing the project, or whether additional funding has been secured. The available information also does not describe the installation’s design or explain how the sculpture park will be developed beyond the initial work.
The 2028 unveiling remains a future milestone: the summary describes the park as planned and does not say that the sculpture has been installed or that the project is complete. Cedar Rapids Bank and Trust’s donation is identified as funding for the initial installation, rather than as a stated total budget for the park.
Until more information is announced, the project’s scope, schedule beyond the target unveiling year and longer-term plans remain unspecified. The stated details establish the location, the source of funding for the first installation and the planned year of its unveiling.
