Wind Dancing has continued to move with the random winds of Long
Island at its location across from the entrance to the Long Island
Children's Museum in Garden City. A restoration grant was provided
for the sculpture in 2009 since it reflected strong messages of the
museum's values, its community and historic location.
Erik Schurink, Exhibit Director stated "the central theme presented by
the sculpture is 'unhindered movement' which mirrors the museum's
principle mission to inspire visitors to explore freely.
Schurink further explains "that the sculpture serves as a reminder of
Long Island's deep ties to both aviation and sailing...the take-off point
for Charles Lindbergh's famous transatlantic flight.
