Recommendation and Review
The 6,000-square-foot Spraygrounds at Ralph Sampson Park opened July 1, 2025, with 36 spray features and interactive elements designed for various ages. Harrisonburg residents Steve and Chris Carpenter wish to privately fund the design and installation of three public artworks at the Spraygrounds. On January 13, 2026 City Council approved for the Carpenters to issue three calls for artists. The Carpenters seek City Council permission to proceed with commissioning artist Scott Supraner to produce his proposed mosaic design on the side of the pumphouse at the Spraygrounds.
