The project consumed over 50 man-hours and included other small improvements to the sculpture garden, such as the installation of a hose and clearing around the dumpster to make room for the new encasement. Butler completed the project in March.

The three-sided structure took three weekends to put up.  The pieces were assembled at Butler’s home and then transported to the site. Butler funded the project through donations, including some from Hingham Lumber, which provided wood and supplies at a discount.
