From staff reports

Four new public art sculptures celebrating the history and culture of the Omaha Tribe of Nebraska were unveiled Saturday at Fontenelle Park. "Umonhon" is a four-piece sculpture series created by Omaha artist Trudy Swanson. Each of the sculpture sites can be found along the trail and features historical and cultural information about the Omaha Tribe and the park's namesake, Chief Logan Fontenelle. The event was organized by Omaha By Design, the Omaha Tribe of Nebraska and the Omaha Department of Parks, Recreation and Public Property to officially welcome the public art pieces.
