The Beacon of Hope

The Beacon of Hope is an interesting sculpture in Oklahoma City at Stiles Park.

[Kim, 09/15/2020]

Nothing says "Hope" like a giant narwhal tusk with a hollow green center. When it was unveiled in 2005 the tusk contained a 1 billion candle power spotlight that could hurl a beam over a mile high.
