Nationally recognized artists contributed their talents to Lookout Cove. Can you find a shimmering fish, a willow maze, or even a hand-carved canoe?
Fish Skeleton
Artist Ben Trautman created a 12-foot-long, 250-pound steel fish skeleton that "swims" when you turn the crank.
Willow Sculpture
Artist Patrick Dougherty created a walk-in organic structure made of willow branches that looks something like a wasp’s nest or the kid-made forts that have long been one of the most popular activities at the Museum.
Mosaic
An 800-square-foot central mosaic created by artist Pippa Murray references the other areas of Lookout Cove, such as sea life and parts of the shipwreck, and is a great spot for a picnic lunch.
Raptors
Inspired by the dream of flight as a child, San Francisco-based artist Michael Brown built a wind activated exhibition that includes nine sculpted metal raptor birds mounted on poles that float nine to 12 feet off the ground.
Stone Frog
Based on local frogs at Fort Baker, Berkeley-based artist and sculptor Marcia Donahue carved a stone frog weighing over two tons out of solid California granite for Lookout Cove’s Glen area.
