Fields of Time
On December 17, 2025, the City of Brentwood marked the completion of Fields of Time with a ribbon-cutting celebration. Designed by artist Douwe Blumberg, the monument spans 180 feet long and 10 feet high, featuring custom metal silhouettes that reflect Brentwood’s rich agricultural history. Fields of Time is positioned along Brentwood Boulevard, welcoming visitors upon entry and marking their departure from the city, reminding them that things are "Better in Brentwood."
Envisioned nearly a decade ago and first introduced in the 2016–2017 Capital Improvement Program as a gateway project, Fields of Time was completed through collaboration across many City departments and constructed by Marc Engineering.
Birds of Beauty by PADA
On June 3, 2025, the City of Brentwood, Parks & Recreation, in partnership with Liberty High School’s Public Art and Design Academy (PADA), unveiled the final installation in a multi-year public art series: Birds of Beauty. Located at the corner of Sand Creek Road and O’Hara Avenue, this student-created sculpture features native bird species found in the local ecosystem, including the golden eagle, blue heron, long-billed curlew, and barn owl. Building on the 2024 Tri-Fish installation, Birds of Beauty highlights the continued collaboration between the City and Liberty Union High School District to bring meaningful, student-led art to Brentwood’s public spaces.
Tri-Fish by PADA
On June 4, 2024, the City of Brentwood, Parks & Recreation, in collaboration with Liberty High School, Public Art and Design Academy (PADA), held a ribbon cutting ceremony for their newly installed artwork, “Tri-Fish.” The impressive 8-foot-tall, 5000+ pound sculpture is located in the planter box on the corner of Sand Creek Road and O’Hara Avenue in Brentwood.
PADA students drew inspiration from the project's location on Sand Creek Road, aiming to “represent the chinook salmon that used to migrate up Sand Creek” in their artwork.
