As reported last week, the Neil Peart Commemorative Task Force has launched a $1-million campaign to create a public art memorial for the legendary RUSH drummer at Lakeside Park in St. Catharines.
We spoke with David DeRocco, Chair of the Neil Peart Memorial committee who says Lakeside park will become a destination.
The memorial, designed by artist Morgan MacDonald, will be placed near the Neil Peart Pavilion, honoring Peart’s legacy and connection to the city.
DeRocco spoke to the installation’s uniqueness.
There are a number of ways to support the artwork’s campaign, including sponsorships to have yourself included on the display. If you’d like to make a non-sponsorship donation to the campaign, that can be done so at the City of St. Catharines website.
