The Donor Recognition Wall was designed as a free standing partition of glass and stone tiles, to be the center piece of the lobby. The wall reads in three sequences:
The inspirational quote which glows through the layers of glass draws the visitors' attention as entering the lobby. The three-dimensional aluminum letters present the appreciation message from Baystate. These letters are incorporated on the tracks which support the glass panels and also house the LED lighting. Then, the donor names, which are etched and paint filled on a second layer of glass to permit yearly additions, are read while approaching the wall.
