    Remarks: 
    The sculptures were created as part of the construction of the library, under the auspices of the Dade County Art in Public Places program. The artist coordinated with the building's architect, George Reed, and was assisted by Miami artists Ernest Carson and Abdullah Muhammad from the Black Arts Workshop in Coconut Grove. The sculpture celebrates unity in diversity, recognizing Florida's multicultural community. A nearby plaque reads: Metropolitan Dade County/Coral Reef Branch Libary/Miami-Dade Public Library System 1980. IAS files contain the artist's statement about the sculpture and an information sheet from the library. The sculpture was damaged by Hurricane Andrew. A number of beams were dislodged, but subsequently reattached.
