Whether you are enjoying the game, grabbing a bite, or walking through the Grove Plaza, this striking piece serves as a reminder of the strength, unity, and pride that define Boise.
About the Artist: Erik Diehl

About the Heart Partner: Idaho Steelheads
For almost 30 years, the Idaho Steelheads have served the Boise community as an affordable, family-friendly entertainment option, all while achieving tremendous success on the ice. Their dedication to their fans and the Treasure Valley has helped shape the cultural identity of downtown Boise.
Joining the Hearts Across the Valley initiative was a natural fit. With a storied history inside Idaho Central Arena, deep community roots, and shared values of connection and impact, partnering with CBH Homes, the Idaho Steelheads, and the arena made perfect sense. Their involvement reflects a commitment to continuing their legacy in Boise for years to come, both on and off the ice.
