Skowhegan has something new called art figures. I don’t call figures designed as naked women with big boobs straddling a pole erected in front of our Aubuchon Hardware very appealing. Who approved of such crap that is oppressive to my family or perhaps to visitors of our town?

I have heard that naked woman called a pole dancer, and the other art figure portrayed as a woman sitting on a toilet.

Skowhegan does not need this trash. We want it removed. If the town fathers want art, then they should look for something that is not offensive and in such poor taste. These pieces are far from Michaelangelo’s work that is admired.
