Vicco von Voss has been awarded a $10,000 planning grant from the Maryland State Arts Council to develop Woodhenge, a new interactive public art installation at Adkins Arboretum in Caroline County, Maryland. Inspired by ancient henges such as Stonehenge, this unique project will transform six massive slabs into a cultural landmark, symbolizing resilience, transformation, and the natural cycles of life.

More than an artwork, Woodhenge is envisioned as a shared space for reflection, education, and connection.

PROJECT GOALS

• Engage residents and visitors through community input and workshops

• Finalize design plans incorporating public feedback

• Lay the foundation for future funding and long-term sustainability

Adkins Arboretum, local and state arts councils, and other community partners will play key roles in this process.
