If you haven’t visited Trail Drivers Park lately, swing by soon to see the latest addition to the Fort Worth Public Art collection! “Seed the Future” by artist Karla Garcia is inspired by migration and the natural landscape at the park. By reimagining the dandelion seed flower, the sculpture becomes a symbol of the legacy and history of the area while reflecting today’s community as one.

We’re looking forward to celebrating this exciting new sculpture at a dedication event soon!
