Loveland's Heart

As part of the City of Loveland's 150th Anniversary Celebration, Loveland's Heart is a community-driven public art campaign to bring a signature bronze sculpture and water feature to Nisbet Park. More than a work of art, this landmark will reflect the spirit, beauty, and character of our community while creating a place where residents and visitors can gather, reflect, and celebrate the city we all love.

Inspired by Loveland's natural beauty and its enduring connection to the Little Miami River, the sculpture will become a welcoming destination for generations to come. Thoughtfully designed and complemented by a water feature that enhances the experience while helping preserve the artwork, Loveland's Heart will invite people to pause, connect, and remember what makes Loveland so special.

Public art has the power to do more than beautify a park. It creates gathering places, inspires conversation, strengthens community pride, and encourages tourism. It becomes the backdrop for family photos, engagement announcements, graduation portraits, and countless memories that tell the story of a community over time.

For generations, Nisbet Park has been a place where families gather, children play, friends reconnect, and traditions are created. As we celebrate 150 years of Loveland's history, we have the opportunity to leave a lasting gift for the next 150 years—a landmark that honors our past while inspiring our future.

Every contribution, regardless of size, brings this vision closer to reality. Together, we're creating more than a sculpture—we're creating Loveland's next landmark and a lasting legacy that future generations will enjoy.

Give today and help bring Loveland's Heart to life. Together, let's create something that will inspire our community for generations to come.
