Two Columns for Wendelin

Created by Kenneth M. Thompson, of Blissfield, Michigan, this sculpture was installed in May 2022. It was commissioned by the Fostoria Area Visitors Bureau in collaboration with the Great Lakes Community Action Partnership with funding support from a Rural LISC Creative Placemaking Grant. The sculpture is inspiring in its own right, but is also special because of its historical significance to our community. It was created with I-beams that were salvaged from the St. Wendelin School property before it was razed in 2021 after closing in 2019.
