When 400 years old you reach, look as good, you will not

An artist best known for sculptures of Yoda and Darth Vader has been commissioned to make a statue to mark Hampton's 400th anniversary, an event with the marketing slogan "From the Sea to the Stars."

Lawrence Noble of Berkeley, Calif., who is best known for his sculptures of Star Wars' figures Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Yoda — which greet visitors to the Lucasfilm campus at the Presidio in California — was selected by Hampton's legacy subcommittee last year.

Noble's design has been narrowed down to that of a sculpture with a lantern on top and three panels with bronze figures, representing three of Hampton's main founding cultures — the colonial settler, the Native American and the African American.

Brianna Venner, special events assistant to Hampton's 400th anniversary, said the statue is one of a number of projects being worked on by the subcommittee. It's likely to be erected later this year.

The statue costs $200,000. The money will come from approximately $560,000 saved since 2007 for the anniversary.
