Promoting and strengthening the artistic and cultural development of Orange County, North Carolina
An event every week that begins at 1:00 pm on Sunday, repeating until December 8, 2019
Sculpture in the Garden is a free, annual outdoor sculpture show that unites the work of North Carolina artists with the curated landscapes of the North Carolina Botanical Garden. Now in its 31st year, this show invites visitors to experience sculpture, the natural world, and the relationship between the two in a new way. We encourage you to visit several times over the course of the exhibit; the garden around the sculptures is always changing!
This year, Sculpture in the Garden runs from Sunday, September 15 through Sunday, December 8. Admission to the show, and to the Garden itself, is free and open to the public during normal Garden hours (9 a.m.-5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, 1-5 p.m. Sunday).
Sculpture in the Garden is geared toward all ages and will be enjoyed by the casual observer as well as the serious art collector. Most pieces are available for purchase, although no pieces will be removed before the end of the show. A Preview Party on Saturday, September 14 gives attendees a chance to meet the artists and have first dibs at purchasing sculptures. Voting for the People’s Choice Award will be open to the public until November 15.
