Our Cranes and Culture Plaza celebrates the profound ways that cranes unite humanity. Sculptor Richard Vanheuvelen created this life-sized Red-crowned Crane pair dancing atop our fountain. Marcy Huffaker, of Half-Aker Designs, developed the adjacent Zen Rock Garden, an interactive space for visitors to reflect on their own connections to cranes.

"Today we are celebrating the largest single gift in the history of the International Crane Foundation. Through a bequest from the estate of the late Phyllis Brissenden, we received nearly $7 million to advance our programs and conservation impact worldwide... Phyllis’s generous investment in our mission is a testament to our good work, but more importantly, it is a challenge for all of us to continue fighting for a healthier planet." ~ Rich Beilfuss, President and CEO
