We are extremely excited about the incredible artwork at the new Central Recreation Center. The Central Recreation Center is home to one of the most prominent installations of integrated art in a U.S. recreation center. The artist team of David Griggs and Scott Parsons collaborated to produce the four part piece titled "Aspire." Meant to inspire wellness and wholeness, the facility's imagery in glass and shaped movements in the atrium spirals record the rhythmic movements of the human body in motion. Visit the central recreation center at 18150 E. Vassar Place in Aurora to view "Aspire" up close.
