The Butterfly Garden
This is a project by Shaylee’s Light, Inc., in partnership with the Nappanee Art Council, created to fulfill our mission:
- Keep Shaylee's light burning;
- Expand ovarian cancer awareness;
- Educate women on the signs & symptoms; and
- Raise funds for ovarian cancer research.
Sculptures have been placed in downtown Nappanee and Wakarusa, Indiana. A teal butterfly was added to each sculpture, along with a plaque containing the name of the sculpture, artist, and an encouraging quote from Shaylee.
“The Butterfly Garden” will be moved to a permanent location along The Art Path in Nappanee in the fall of 2023 to be enjoyed by residents and visitors.
