Located at the Franklin Street crossing of the trail in Malden, a COVID-19 memorial will be built featuring a sculpture, a bench and a mural of poetry and art. “This pocket park will not only serve as public art, but also a special space to remember and honor those that we lost to Artwork called “Bench with Mosaic Line” COVID pandemic, the families who are grieving, the workers who went above and beyond, and our neighbors who pitched in and came together,” said Malden Arts President Ari Taylor. As Phase Two of the ARTLine begins, Malden Arts is grateful to Senator Jason Lewis, who had state funds set aside for this project, Councillor-at-Large Debbie DeMaria, who generously provided additional funding for the sculpture and the bench, and to Representative Paul Donato, who was instrumental in working with the MBTA. A New England artist was chosen for the sculpture and the bench out of applicants from Phase One of the ARTLine. He is Thomas Berger from Kittery, Maine. Both pieces will be made of local granite and feature implanted mosaics of blues set flush into a fish sculpture, a wave bench and a mosaic pool. Fish and water are powerful symbols of interconnectedness in many cultures throughout human history. Malden Arts will be putting out a Call to Artists seeking contributions from local poets and artists for a mural to honor the victims of COVID. Malden resident Lisa Sears has coordinated two exhibits that invited artists to create visual depictions of work by local poets. Malden COVID-19 | SEE PAGE 5 T Two hospitalized in Christmas Eve crash at busy intersection at Malden-Medford line Advocate Staff Report wo victims were rushed to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston with serious injuries after a Christmas Eve crash at one of the area’s busiest intersections. State and local police were both on the scene as well as fire and other emergency apparatus immediately after the serious accident, which demolished a car at around 9:30 p.m. on Friday, December 24. The crash came when the driver apparently lost control of the vehicle and it slammed into a tree at one of area's busiest intersections, Fellsway East and Salem Street in Medford, less than 150 feet from the Malden-Medford city line. Police did not release the identities of the injured persons so it was unable to be determined what their medical conditions may have been by press time. The driver of the motor vehicle pictured above struck a tree at the corner of Fellsway East and Salem Street near the Malden/ Medford line on Friday, December 24. According to sources, one or two people were hospitalized with serious injuries. (Photo by Michael Layhe)
