Miralda's Honeymoon Project celebrates the 500th anniversary of Columbus' voyage to the New World through a series of installations, performances, and exhibitions happening around the world and based upon the theme of the symbolic courtship and marriage of the Statue of Liberty to the Columbus Column in Barcelona's harbor. In Philadelphia, the Samuel S. Fleisher Art Memorial is sponsoring the creation of the Liberty Belle Cape -- a "trousseau" gift for Lady Liberty made to monumental scale -- in collaboration with the Mummers Museum and other area cultural institutions. The Cape will be presented to the public on New Year's Day during the Mummers Parade.
