Counter-demonstrators held their own hand-made signs in support of the Hindu god Ganesha sculptor on the southeast corner of 6th & Sherman, in front of the Parkside building in downtown Coeur d'Alene. Recreation Director Steve Anthony (behind demonstrators on the left) handled the master of ceremonies duties at the dedication of the art-on-loan program that features 14 sculptors around downtown Coeur d'Alene. About 35 to 40 people attended the demonstration, some drawn to it by the controversy surrounding the Ganesha art display.
