The above Mark Twain statue is located in front of the historic Springville Carnegie Library which is now a museum, there are other copies of it around – I know I saw one in California.
Gary Price is a local to Springville and his artwork is very common to see around town.

The Violin Making School of America was founded in 1972 by Peter Paul Prier, a master luthier from Germany. Thirty two years later we unveiled this statue as a tribute to the school. Here, the finest string instruments and bows are expertly crafted, repaired, and restored, keeping alive the art of violin making.
