Catherine Violet Hubbard, six year old victim of the Sandy Hook shooting on December 12, 2012
“Tell all your friends that I am kind,” said Catherine Violet Hubbard to a butterfly. Catherine always said that one day she would care for all animals – they were her love affair, and nurturing them, her passion. Had she not fallen victim in the tragedy of Sandy Hook, there is no doubt she would have realized her dream.
The full size bronze statue will depict Catherine talking to a butterfly and perched on an old tree stump in which many animals will be nestled. The outdoor statue will welcome visitors from the hilltop of this beautiful 34 acre sanctuary on Old Farm Road in Newtown, Connecticut.
Lauren Mills sculpted a 20” maquette which are being sold to fund the full size statue for the Catherine Violet Hubbard Animal Sanctuary in Newtown, Connecticut. To find out more how to either purchase a bronze sculpture or to make a donation, please contact:
