Latvia National Day On behalf of the United States government, I wish to congratulate Latvia and its people on their centennial anniversary of independence.

Will you be walking down the streets of Philadelphia any time soon? Then don't miss your chance to see a 17-foot-tall traveling kaleidoscopic sculpture "Gardens" (by our partner Ray Bartkus) that's currently on display in the Kimmel Center's Commonwealth Plaza lobby. The artwork commemorates the 100th anniversary of the restitution of Lithuanian statehood!

It's also No.1 on "Seven New Must-See Public Art Displays In Philadelphia" list: http://bit.ly/MustSeeInPhiladelphia
