Our Angel is complete and will most likely be arriving in Virginia before the end of the month. 

The foundry, Metal Arts Foundry, is located in Lehi, Utah, 30  miles south of Salt Lake City.  The foundry has placed pieces in Europe, and throughout the Americas - they are locally owned and operated.  The foundry did not make the first four angels but have made every one since (107).  You can visit their website at www.mtlarts.com

The Angel statue will be delivered to the Virginia City Hall where it will be on display until it is time for the Angel to be delivered to the completed park.

It's not too late to order a memorial tile - we have decided to extend the cutoff date until we reach our goal of 100 tiles or until June 15th, whichever comes first - shipping is free for an order of 100 tiles so we are hoping to avoid any shipping costs.  PLEASE share this with anyone you know that might be interested in purchasing a memorial tile or if you want to purchase a tile in memory of your loved one - we all are someone's child, so let's pay tribute to all of them.  This beautiful memorial tile will last a life time – custom engraved in memory of your loved one.  

4” x 8” Personalized Tile (1 – 3 lines of inscription) = $200
8” x 8” Personalized Tile (1 – 6 lines of inscription) = $300
