In 1992, Edward H. Honnen (from the 1921 Class of Colorado Springs High School) commissioned sculptor Cloyd Barnes to create a statue of Tutt, which was placed in front of the Tutt Library. Over the years, the statue have been decorated in various ways, and they have done so with affection, imagination and a sense of humor.
