[Donna and Bill Blum, 04/10/2019]This piece of artwork is part of an outdoor collection at Sunset mall. It's a time capsule that contains art from today, and will be opened in the future. I've always loved time capsules, watching them get opened.
Amarillo is truly a treasure trove of art, if you get a chance stop by and check out the art at Sunset Center.
