Prescott Valley is now home to Arizona’s first Freedom Rock, a painted monument honoring veterans and their stories of service. The project is part of a nationwide effort started in Iowa by artist Ray “Bubba” Sorenson to place Freedom Rocks in all 50 states. Located at the Prescott Valley Civic Center, the massive 38,000-pound rock features artwork honoring figures like Pat Tillman and the Navajo Code Talkers. The monument was made possible through strong community support, donations, and volunteers. Visitors can stop by anytime, with committee members often available on Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. to share the history behind the rock.
