The Necco Wafer Memorial Sculpture was conceived and created by artist Ross Miller and is located near where the companies (New England Confectionery) factory once stood. The metal sculpture depicts a crumpled paper bag on a boulder in Cambridge Park with Necco wafers spilling out of it. Though the sculpture can be easily missed or overlooked but it still arouses childhood memories for anyone who has enjoyed the flavor of their favorite candies.
Once upon a time in the year 1995, Emily the Cow escaped from a slaughterhouse in Hopkinton, by jumping a gate. She rambled through the forest for over a month, before she was given asylum at the Peace Abbey. She was a huge source of inspiration for all. She did not talk, but her huge eyes and friendly disposition inspired many who met her. She lived at the Peace Abbey all her life, until her death, and was buried here too. After her death in the year 2004, her owners, the Randa family asked artist Lado Goudjabidze to sculpt a life-sized bronze statue in her honor, near the statues of Mother Teresa and Gandhi. The statue is labelled as the 'Sacred Cow Animal Rights Memorial'.
