“Convergence” by Andrew Nigh - the sculpture for this year’s burn at Fire Up the Fields.

(Aired Thu 10/17/24)

This weekend, it’s time to “Fire Up the Fields” - the annual sculpture burn here in Chattanooga.

It happens Saturday at Sculpture Fields at Montague Park, starting at 5 PM - and after sundown is the signature burn of a 30-foot wooden sculpture designed and built by local artist Andrew Nigh.

I spoke with him - and Kim Adams, board chair for Sculpture Fields.
