Experience Astonishing Sculptures, Scavenger Hunt & Springtime delights! We invite you to join us and enjoy the truly unique experience of Grounds For Sculpture!
Grounds For Sculpture was founded by artist and philanthropist Seward Johnson (of the Johnson & Johnson family). It opened in 1992 on the former New Jersey State Fairgrounds and was a natural extension of its predecessor, The Johnson Atelier. Hundreds of artists studied and produced work at the Atelier, and Johnson saw the potential of the neighboring bygone fairgrounds as a place where artwork could be sited within the landscape, and visitors could delight in discovering contemporary sculpture.
Walk over Monet's foot bridge to see the Water Lillies in the pond. View famous impressionist painters art work recreated for your enjoyment on the grounds.
Travel in comfort to the Grounds for Sculpture museum, sculpture garden, and arboretum located on 42 acres of picturesque grounds with 300 different sculptures. Ticket price includes roundtrip transportation, and Grounds for Sculpture admission, guided audio tour to enjoy an afternoon walking among the artwork. Famous art is recreated in larger than life sculptures. This is an experience to remember! We will have a voluntary Scavenger Hunt with prizes! Bring your camera and comfy walking shoes! Meals are not included, however there is a cafe and Rat's Restaurant on the grounds.
