While researching for the
Tri-Bridges Around The World, I found a large circle of vases near the famous
"Y" bridge of Zanesville. Locally known as "Vasehenge" these
vases were
installed in 2008 to showcase history of Zanesville. The area has large
deposits of clay and the town is famous for clay potteries including hand
painted pottery.
The circle is about 18 metres (60 feet) in diameter and the
vases are about 2 meters (6 feet) tall. There are 19 vases and one empty
pedestal. I assume that the vase on it either got damaged accidentally or was
vandalised. The vases are painted in different themes; dreams, mother goose,
globe, birds, animal, nature etc. One vase has the slogan "Dare to Do" painted
on it, while another says "Dare to Dream".
