Description
A quiet moment unfolds on a park bench — a young raccoon and an adult black bear share a seat by chance. There’s no fear, only curiosity. The bear sits calmly as the raccoon leans in, both captivated by the stillness of the day. This peaceful encounter invites us to reflect on how connection often begins with the simple act of noticing one another.
This collaboration between Gillie and Marc and Tanger Outlets Sevierville transforms public space into a joyful meeting place where art, nature, and community come together.
Each sculpture captures a moment of play, connection, and imagination, showing the Smokies’ beloved creatures as they live, laugh, and explore their world. Together, they invite visitors to slow down, smile, and rediscover the joy of being present in nature.
