Inscription. The city of St. Croix Falls commissioned local sculptor, Julie Ann Stage, to create a monument in bronze which would embody the poetry and natural beauty of the St. Croix River Valley.

River Spirit, unveiled on July 29th of 2007, is a focal point for the city’s cultural, arts and historic district.

Limited-Edition bronzes of River Spirit developed the program to create proceeds supporting arts and culture in the community.
