Grounds For Sculpture

Grounds For Sculpture is a 42-acre sculpture park and museum located in Hamilton, New Jersey. Established in 1992 by sculptor and philanthropist Seward Johnson, the park aims to promote an understanding and appreciation of contemporary sculpture by showcasing a diverse collection of works by renowned and emerging artists. The beautifully landscaped grounds feature over 300 contemporary sculptures, set amidst meticulously maintained gardens, water features, and wooded areas, providing a unique and immersive art experience.

The park is divided into various thematic sections, each offering a distinct atmosphere and artistic focus. Visitors can stroll through areas like the Meadow, which features large-scale abstract sculptures, or the Nine Muses, inspired by Greek mythology. One of the most iconic attractions is Seward Johnson's work, "The Awakening," a massive, partially buried statue of a giant emerging from the earth. Additionally, the park includes several indoor galleries that host rotating exhibitions, workshops, and educational programs, allowing guests to engage with the art on multiple levels.

Grounds For Sculpture is open year-round, with each season offering a different perspective and ambiance.
