The Elinor D. Hawkins bear has finally found her new home. The bear, designed by Rose Williams and created by Tryon Palace artist Lindsey Demonch, is standing guard now outside of the New Bern-Craven County Library. Designer Rose Williams is a friend of Miss Elinor and she worked with Tryon Palace artist Lindsey Demonch to bring Miss Elinor's story to life in the form of one of the city's famous bear statues.
