Rising from its base of gravel and stone, the peg symbolises the connections, unity and solidarity of the human family. Supported by the peg is a planet where ethnicities, cultures and religions, despite their differences, merge together in the essence of our human existence.
Launched on 2 March 2013 by His Excellency Mr Pedro Monzón Barata, Ambassador of the Republic of Cuba, and Ms Joy Burch MLA, ACT Minister for the Arts (at the time of the launch).
