City of Coral Springs

CELEBRATING AMERICA’S 250TH ANNIVERSARY

As part of Coral Springs’ celebration of America’s 250th anniversary, the city is showcasing two temporary public art sculptures that honor themes of history, freedom, innovation, and community. Building on a program that has brought outdoor art to Coral Springs since 2003, these installations transform public spaces into an open-air gallery for residents and visitors to enjoy. Located along key corridors throughout the city, the sculptures invite reflection, conversation, and appreciation for both art and our nation’s enduring story.

The program is funded through dedicated public art fees associated with new development and renovation projects, requiring no Ad Valorem Tax dollars.

Reef Star • City Hall Lawn (9500 West Sample Road)

Created by Betancourt, Reef Star is a sculptural installation inspired by nature, culture, and interconnectedness. Influenced by Tropical Modernism and Caribbean and American landscapes, it combines narrative and design for a site-responsive piece celebrating beauty, identity, and ecology. Materials include 3D-printed concrete (five star sculptures).

Liberty Lines • Mullins Park

Created by Miami Artist Brandon Amira, Liberty Lines is a large-scale light sculpture blending art and architecture with illuminated aluminum forms. Standing 14 feet tall, it uses LED lighting and linear design to transform space by day and night. Amira’s work combines artistic vision and engineering, creating visually striking, durable sculptures. Materials include aluminum, LED lighting, powder coating, and diffusers.
