The Mission of Century Walk Corporation is to create culturally significant and diverse public art throughout Naperville in the 21st Century.
The concrete whale, with a head almost nine feet high and a tail raised five feet in the air, is a testament to Highlands Elementary slogan, 'A whale of a school'. The whale is a symbol of school pride and connection between students of past, present and future.
The school adopted the slogan “A Whale of a School” in 1983, and in the following years, several small whale sculptures were purchased in honor of a student with a fondness for the animal, who later succumbed to illness. In 1997, the school built the original whale out of recycled materials, but had to tear it down in 2010 because of wear-and-tear. This piece replaces the original wooden whale sculpture (which had been created by artist Joe LaMantia).
Although this sculpture is part of the Naperville Century Walk it is not necessary to go there as the information you need is readily available on-line.
