Sculptor and Detroit native, Larry Halbert, will be at the Library on Wednesday, July 10 at 7 p.m. with the story behind the Michigan WWII Legacy Memorial, set to open in the coming year.  The memorial will tell the story of Michigan’s tremendous contribution to the war effort and has been designated as the official State memorial for World War II.  Mr. Halbert will share his process and the work being done to create the nine life-sized bronze sculptures that will be an integral part of the project.
