For us? You shouldnât have.
We think living in Knoxville is the greatest gift of all, but itâs actually been on the receiving end of quite a few delightful donations. From sculptures to park benches, check out these gifts given to the city. Worldâs largest Rubikâs Cube | This one wonât fit in a stocking. The largest Rubikâs Cube in the world (at 10 ft tall + 1,200 pounds) is currently on display at the Knoxville Convention Center â it was gifted to us by the Hungarian government after the 1982 Worldâs Fair.
âCycle of Life: Within the Power of Dreams and the Wonder of Infinityâ | This glass-and-steel exhibition by Richard Jolley is one of the largest of its kind in the world â and it was specifically commissioned for the Knoxville Museum of Art. The artwork was a gift from Ann and Steve Bailey, and the museumâs Great Hall was later named in their honor.
