Metal Art
“Captain Henry Every”, a bird-like creature with a long, alert neck, stands watch at an entrance to the Baraboo Riverwalk in the 100 block of Water Street. This ten-foot tall creature is welded from a variety of discarded metal objects, including construction rebar and grass trimmer blades, by a regional folk artist known as Dr. Evermor.
Dr. Evermor (Tom Every) began welding metal scraps into large sculptures beginning in the 1980’s. His imaginative works have been featured many state and regional articles and travel guides.
Eleanor and Tom Every generously donated this sculpture to the people of Baraboo in September 2013, through the Baraboo Public Art Association.
