<h1>Local students create a sculpture for Dunstable</h1><strong> Author: <a href='http://www.articleseen.com/profile_Sarah Evelyn.aspx'>Sarah Evelyn</a></strong><br /><p>I was really upset when my sister decided to move away from Kent to Dunstable 5 years ago, as I knew we won’t be able to see each other that often. Over the years we got used to not seeing each other but we stayed in contact via the phone, we made sure we spoke every day. During the summer holidays I decided it was time to go and see my sister, and so I drive my used Vauxhall from Kent to Dunstable. When I got there, my sister was telling me about the 25th Anniversary of Dunstable Town Council and how Vauxhall is working alongside local students to create a commemorative piece of artwork. Not only that but a 4x4 vehicle was donated by Vauxhall for students to use as a representation of Bedford Trucks' 30 year heritage of Dunstable. My sister’s daughter was one of the students that were guided by local artist Nicola Dailey and worked with the Vauxhall Heritage Centre in Luton identifying parts to influence the sculpture's final design. The all students that were involved dismantled the engine before using parts and logos to create a sculpture which represents Bedford Trucks and their own interests. The students sculpture is one of the four that were unveiled in Grove Park in Dunstable. Nicola Dailey was commissioned to work with the local community, with the aim of producing a lasting sculpture depicting Dunstable throughout the years. Nicola wished to create four pieces, symbolising each of Dunstable's quadrants.
