About RACF & Our Vision

The Roselle Arts and Culture Foundation was formed in 2021 by Karen Ostrander and Lora Troesken. They both had the idea of creating a public art mosaic in Roselle.

Their vision was quickly put into action by Mayor David Pileski who urged Ostrander and Troesken to partner with the village on its forthcoming centennial. Thus, the Roselle Centennial Mosaic Public Art Project and, quite organically, the RACF was born.

• 2022 Centennial Relief Sculpture

• 2023 AND 2024 First Place Winner in the Rose Parade – Float Design
