Circle of Peace and the Girl Who Loved to Travel | Denver News

For 25 years, “Circle of Peace” has stood as a shimmering symbol of joy and unity in Loveland, its golden bronze gleaming from the hands of children who play “Ring Around the Rosie” around its form. But its meaning runs deeper — dedicated in 2001 to Julia Moser, a young traveler lost in the Swissair crash, the sculpture’s intentional gap honors her absence, a quiet tribute to a life cut short. Artist Gary Price, shaped by his own childhood struggles, was moved to create this circle after watching kids play near his studio — and even designed it so visitors could step in and complete the ring, turning art into participation. It’s no surprise the sculpture became Julia’s favorite spot in Loveland — and today, families still gather there, passing down memories, honoring her, and living out the peace the art was meant to embody.
