Bringing History to Life in
St. Helena
A bench.
A statue.
A tribute.
Imagine a beautifully crafted bronze statue of Robert Louis Stevenson, seated on an artistic bench, right in front of the St. Helena Public Library—a space where book lovers, historians, and the entire community can come together to honor one of the greatest literary figures of all time.
We’re working to make this vision a reality. With your support, we can install this meaningful piece of public art, ensuring Stevenson’s legacy continues to inspire generations to come.
