Description

Hidden away at the end of Peddler's Alley in downtown Sandusky Ohio is an unusual brick wall. The wall is an impressive piece of abstract sculpture commissioned by the city in 1980 as a public arts project. My children always called it the "wacky wall" and so it will always be called in my mind. Quote from the Sandusky Register on the history of this unique public arts project below:

"The wall was a public arts project that was done around 1980 to 1981 through a partnership with Sandusky City Schools. An artist was commissioned and used selected art class students to build that piece as well as the sculpture in the High School front lawn.

Sandusky Library's special collections librarian Ron Davidson: The abstract brick (east) side of the wall was built in 1980 by an artist named John Spofford, from Athens, Ohio. It was built on the back wall of the Brehm Building on Market Street. The building was demolished in 1999, and work was done through 2000 to preserve the sculpture and its backing wall."
