Kaleidoscope Park, a dynamic, innovative arts and culture destination for North Texas currently under construction, will be home to free, year-round public programming, including films, diverse musical and dance performances, and a variety of health and recreational activities. The park will feature monumental works of public art, architecture and gardens set among a children’s play area, dog park, performance lawn, outdoor workspaces, shaded promenades and plazas. The Frisco Rotary Farmers Market is relocating to Kaleidoscope Park on August 3.

The centerpiece is the captivating work Butterfly Rest Stop, created by world-renowned sculpture and fabric artist Janet Echelman. The theme highlights the area as an important corridor for monarch butterfly migration. It represents one of the largest outdoor public art installations in Texas, and is a significant contribution to Frisco’s public art program.

The design echoes the forms, patterns and colors of milkweed flowers. Made of ultra-high-molecular weight polyethylene fibers like those used by NASA to tether the mars rover, the sculpture is comprised of two, five-petaled forms that float gently in the air, using nearly 90 miles of fiber to create the 165-foot-long span.

Location: near the Dallas N. Tollway at Warren Pkwy., in Frisco. For more information, visit Kaleidoscopeark.org.
