The future of sculptural gardens is determined by sports or art

The sculptures were the subject of a 13-hectare plot with the Chattanooga Football Club (CFC) and to be used for the arts or practice.

The Exterior Draft Museum of Art has been praised for its ingenuity, but a recent 7-2 decision by the Chattanooga City Council on August 24 for new areas of work, modern lighting systems, parking and toilet facilities.

Recognizing their destiny to be empty, officials in the field of sculptures had their own plans for the vacant lot near their park. The multi-million dollar plan includes new art pieces, an amphitheater and a welcome center.

Many local news outlets reported the story, but sculptures never knew about the CFC plans. According to Chattanooga, Bill Robinson, secretary of the Board of Trustees, who has learned about the news, has asked for a decision to delay the decision to discuss the lease with the Kitanuga City Council.

Many students at UTC have supported plans in the fields of lottery, including Junior Becky Gross, a major in physical science.

“I really want the amphitheater,” Grace said. There is much you can do there, raise money, do theatrical performances or concerts and match the sculptures.

Theater Major Freshman Cato Taylor also advocated for sculpture.

“I think it will be a great outdoor theater, especially when it comes to COVID-19,” Taylor said. Not only for UTC Theater, it would be nice to have such a place for all the different companies and community groups.

In any case, some students, such as Parker Heights, an elementary student in the golf course, wanted the fields to be built.

“Give it to the CFC. We already have a lot of art galleries and museums in the city of Chattanooga.” “Rugby is already practiced there, so I will let them get their first choice.



Sculpture Gardens: Rugby

Suspicion that sculptural fields will be used more often, Junior Female Debucaryar commented.

“I have never seen an amphitheater in operation once a week,” Devawlar said. Those rugby guys probably lived there several times a week, and if they built football fields, it would be recorded all week.

The sound may sound like a winner for sports, but the decision is not without its consequences. The Chattanooga Men’s Rugby Club and the Chattanga Women’s Rugby Club have both rented the fields for training and games and are concerned about their future as a club.

Bella Cracklow, president of the Chattanooga Women’s Rugby Club, said he was unsure if the city council or CFC would continue farming when the fields changed hands and where they would practice during construction.

Cracklow added that the men’s team has been in discussions with both the city and the CFC, and they are confident that they will support the women’s team.

“We have nowhere else to go, and believe me, we have seen,” says Cracklow. If the city or CFC has the right to allow us to continue renting, it would be amazing to have a good complex.

The sport is of great value to many people, both inside and outside the home. UTC does not currently host the School Girls Rugby Club, so the Chattanooga Women’s Rugby Club is the only option for current UTC women and graduates who want to play and find a community.

“We always have people moving around before they start work,” says Cracklow. “It’s a great opportunity to create a community, and that is very important for many people in women’s rugby.”

According to Andy Santoro of CBS affiliate WDEF-TV, sculptures offer a number of options for the park, but the CFC continues the bidding process.

Regardless of the direction chosen by the city council, the lack of a breathing room in Chattanooga is beginning to show. Sculpting fields, CFCs and rugby teams are all important elements for the university, the city and the community.

While the topic of sports and the arts is controversial, the organizations have issued statements seeking to co-operate in the decision-making process.
