At a city hall press conference, the Commonwealth Monument Project received several large checks and pledges that will enable work to begin on critical aspects of the multi- part statue. e city, the Foundation for Enhancing Communities (TFEC) and philanthropist Peggy Grove all announced additional support for the monument planned for the lawn of the Capitol's Irvis office building at N. 4th and Walnut streets. "It's a wonderful and incredibly important day," said Harrisburg Mayor Eric Papenfuse. "e monument, which has been a vision for so long, will become a reality." In its 2020 budget, the city pledged $25,000 to help build the base of the monument if organizers could raise a $25,000 matching grant. TFEC now has provided that match. e $360,000 monument, called "A Gathering at the Crossroads," consists of three distinct aspects, all crafted by Lancaster-based A.R.T. Enterprises. e first, the orator's pedestal, depicts scenes of Harrisburg's old 8th Ward, which was demolished to expand the Capitol complex. It already has been completed. e second consists of life-sized figures of four important figures in Harrisburg history: civil rights activist William Howard Day, journalist and lawyer omas Morris Chester, musician and restaurateur Jacob T. Compton and abolitionist and suffragist Francis Ellen Walker Harper. In addition to honoring the demolished 8th Ward, the monument is a tribute to voting rights—specifically, the U.S. Constitution's 15th and 19th amendments, which secured the vote for African Americans and for women, respectively. e project's third aspect is the base of the monument, which the $50,000 donation will fund. Grove, who had already helped fund the monument's pedestal, then announced additional support by the Grove Family Fund for two of the four statues. Besides raising money, the monument's executive committee has succeeded in receiving legislative approval to site the monument on the grounds of the Capitol complex. Festivals on tap FoR maRch Two celebrations, just weeks apart, will mean a busy March around downtown Harrisburg. First up, on March 7, the city will host its third annual Ice and Fire Festival. e one-day event closes down a portion of N. 2nd Street for free ice skating in the street, children's activities, music, food trucks, fire dancers and other fun events, capped off by a dozen or so ice sculptures. Two weeks later, on March 21, downtown again will spring to life with a number of St. Patrick's Day events. Activities begin at noon for what's become the start of the long race season in Harrisburg, with the Lucky Charm 5K/10K. At 2 p.m., the run becomes a slow walk as the annual St. Patrick's Day parade begins to wind its way through the downtown. e parade will feature six Irish pipe and drum bands, fire trucks, floats, Irish dance groups and other entertainers, in addition to numerous food trucks. "We are pleased to be hosting this year's St. Patrick's Day parade and are excited to show off more of our downtown business community," said Todd Vander Woude, executive director of the Harrisburg Downtown Improvement District. "We invite you and your family to join us for a great day downtown." Several downtown streets will close for the Ice and Fire Festival and St. Patrick's Day events, which both occur on Saturdays. Four hours of free parking are available in downtown metered spots by using the Parkmobile app with code "LUVHBG." Downtown Harrisburg last month was hit by a substantial water main break. About 200 customers were either without water or had to boil their water for several days after a large crack developed in an 82-year-old pipe. Harrisburg University has announced two more major outdoor concerts in Riverfront Park. Alt-rockers Cage the Elephant are slated to play on June 18 and DJs Steve Aoki and Deorro on June 26. In January, HU said that Riverfront Park also will be the site of a June 4 concert by the Icelandic band, Of Monsters and Men. so noteD Just Baked Cakes & Pies held its grand opening last month inside of Midtown Scholar Bookstore in the former space of P&R Bakery. Owner Tammy Worthy-Jones heads up the eatery, which specializes in cheesecakes and also offers cookies, puddings, pies, sandwiches, soups and breakfast items. Matthew Herren last month was named the new executive director of the Harrisburg Symphony Orchestra. Herren, originally from Lancaster, will replace Jeff Woodruff, who is retiring after 17 years in the position. Most recently, Herren served as executive director of the Symphony of Northwest Arkansas.
