Pouring of Bronze: Sacagawea's Head - Cascade Locks, Oregon

2011 Mar 23 | The Port of Cascade Locks staff was invited to watch the pouring of Sacagawea's head--part of the two bronze statues that will grace the Marine Park on April 13th, 2011. The Port would like to thank local artist Heather Soderberg and her Foundry for this opportunity.

Project Details:

The Port has commissioned local artist Heather Soderberg of Soderberg Bronze Works Inc. to create two bronze sculptures of Sacagawea and the dog Seaman, of Lewis and Clark history. These two figures have historical significance in the area—Cascade Locks was a noted stop on Lewis and Clark's trail. These sculptures will be located west of the Visitor's Center in the circle that previously hosted the flag pole. Heather's stunning work set in such a beautiful location will create a site that will be treasured for years to come. To keep up to date on the project, become a fan of the Port of Cascade Locks on Facebook and watch for updates on our website.
