Some of the sculptures are virtual geocaches. I stopped to get the information I needed to claim the find and enjoyed the artwork. The artwork makes the town feel classy and modern. Artsy. Great addition that focuses on local history

Explore an interesting peek into Artesia's history. Don't forget to climb the stairs and appreciate those displays, too. Outside, the construction and placement of individual river rocks is quite and accomplishment.
