Coming in September: Sculpture in the Garden

Promotional postcard for the 36th annual sculpture in the garden showing some of the varied sculptures that will be featured in the show

The 36th annual Sculpture in the Garden opens on Sunday, September 15 and runs until Sunday, December 8.

Sculpture in the Garden unites the work of local artists with the native plant landscapes of the North Carolina Botanical Garden. Together, they invite you to experience art, the natural world, and the relationship between the two in a new way.

This year’s show features over 80 installations by 66 North Carolina artists. The show is free to visit during normal Garden hours, and all ages are welcome. Most sculptures are available for purchase, and a portion of proceeds benefits the North Carolina Botanical Garden.
