The Sculpture Garden is located at the east end of City Hall and was founded in 1978 to present outdoor sculpture as an art form for all to share.
Works are either commissioned, purchased after completion, or received as gifts. Pieces are continually being added to the growing repertoire of works by well-known and well respected sculptors such as Rudy Ackerman, Harry Bertoia, Antonio Salemme, Tim Considine and Renzo Fazzioli and more.
With the City's generous help, the Commission spent time last summer planting some wonderful perennials. These natural additions make the Sculpture Garden a great place to sit under the trees while you dine on a bag lunch and enjoy the surroundings.
