The Sammamish Arts Commission dedicated the new Lower Commons Community Garden gate Sept. 19 at 8:45 a.m.

Artist Garth Edwards, who was commissioned to construct the gates, spoke about his work at the ceremony.

The Commission paid the local artist $8,000 to design and install the aluminum gates, which were installed July 14 and July 18.

The Lower Commons Community Garden is located off of 222nd Place Southeast.
