"Standing at a crossroads, Dignity echoes the interaction of earth, sky, and people. It brings to light the beauty and promise of the indigenous peoples and culture that still thrives on this land. The intent is to have the sculpture stand as an enduring symbol of our shared belief that all here are sacred and in a sacred place." Dale Lamphere, Sculptor
If you see her while coming from the West she may take your breath away. She stands 50 feet tall and was dedicated September 17, 2016. The talented sculptor Dale Lamphere used three different Native American models from Rapid City SD to create her. He was assisted by sculptors Tom Trople, Jim Maher, Andy Roltgen, and Grant Standard. Automotive paint expert Brook Loobey assisted with the colors for the quilt, and an engineering company from Rapid City, SD ensured the sculpture would endure the strong winds common in the area. I truly believe that this is one site that will stay with you no matter when you see it.
