Local Artist Peter Hassen Contributes Landmark Donation to Sonoma Public Art Collection
Sonoma artist Peter Hassen has donated his large-scale Corten steel sculpture "Cycles 3" to the City of Sonoma's public art collection. The 96-inch artwork, featuring circular forms depicting bees, birds, frogs, and native plants, was previously displayed on Sonoma Plaza during the Sonoma Valley Museum of Art's 2021 "Delicate Balance" exhibition. The Sonoma City Council unanimously approved the donation at its June 17 meeting, following a recommendation from the Cultural and Fine Arts Commission.
