Flight will be dedicated at 5:30 p.m. Nov. 10 at the Hemphill Lamar Connector, located between West Lancaster Avenue at Lamar Street and West Vickery Boulevard at Hemphill Street.
Artist Dan Corson’s design celebrates Fort Worth’s aviation history and links the patterns of migrating birds with those of jets in flight formation. Corson also translates the city’s Molly icon into a contemporary expression of pattern and movement to enhance the experience of traveling through the Hemphill Connector.
