About Redwood Park
The park was purchased by Boise City in 1994 from Cloverdale Nursery with the understanding that the land would be developed into a neighborhood park.
Public Art Information
Design: Passage, designed by artist James Peterson, is comprised of Corten steel archways fabricated to resemble tree branches. Open spaces will feature colored acrylic panels and there will be LED lighting at the top of each arch. A curved pathway will connect two concrete pads, creating an accessible pathway to travel through the artwork.
Concept: The goal of the artwork is to draw inspiration from the natural beauty and the delightful experience of strolling among fruit gardens. It will pay homage to the agricultural heritage of the historic Ustick Townsite, which was once home to some of the area's largest apple orchards in the Pacific Northwest and served as an important site for fruit processing and canning. This large-scale sculpture will offer an opportunity to learn more about site history and come together as friends, family, and neighbors.
Artist: After a nationwide call for artists, a committee of local stakeholders made up of members of Boise City Council, Arts & History Commission, Boise Parks and Recreation, Energize Our Neighborhoods, West Valley Neighborhood Association, and the local artist and business community, selected James Peterson to design and create a sculpture for Redwood Park, a recommendation later approved by Boise Mayor Lauren McLean and the Boise City Council. James is an artist based in California, who has over 15 years of experience creating large-scale, place-based sculptures. He sees his work as visual storytelling, approaching each sculpture with the hope of creating a dialogue on our communities and natural realms.
Installation is underway and work is expected to be completed in the summer of 2025.
