Meet the Artists of Sculpture at The Mount

June 28 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Drop in anytime — no registration required.

Sculpture at The Mount features works of contemporary outdoor sculpture in a range of media throughout The Mount’s vibrant woods, gardens, and grounds. This year’s exhibition celebrates the theme of Flourish, showcasing artwork that conveys connection, growth, hope, flora and fauna, resilience, and the ways that a community thrives by bringing people together.

On June 28, join us for Meet the Artists, a lively gathering with the artists who created this year’s outdoor sculptures. View the artwork through their eyes as the artists share their stories of inspiration and creation!
