The Dancing Cranes Sculpture project started in February of 2006, after interviews of sculptors and fundraising activities the finished sculpture was installed April 13 2009. The cooper and stainless steel sculpture is composed of two dancing cranes on a boulder and one taking flight from a tree. The sculpture which is located in a retention basin at the rear of the Hospital can be viewed from the Cancer Center as well as patient rooms. The slopes of the basin are slowly being planted with Cherry trees. This uplifting sculpture will be a great addition to the collection of sculptures on the Doylestown Hospital Community Arboretum campus.
