Spring has Sprung!

One of my favorite places to go and enjoy nature in the spring is Abington art center. Located on a historic 27 acre campus, you can walk through their sculpture garden. 

Nature and Art Come Alive

A visit to the Sculpture Park begins at the outdoor Welcome Area where you can find information about our  27-acre park and the sculptures currently on view. Environmental issues and images run deep in AAC’s Sculpture Park. The woodland landscape lends itself to the development of sculpture that comments on the human impact on the environment, reveals the cycles of nature, and uses natural materials. Every visit to the Sculpture Park is different based on the light, the weather and the seasons. It takes about 1 hour to visit the entire park.
AAC’s Sculpture Park welcomes everyone from school children and families to art enthusiasts and tourists. The Sculpture Park has been recognized on the national level with public project grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, The Pew Charitable Trusts, the Andy Warhol Foundation and the Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation.
Abington Art Center presents exhibitions, programs and events designed to make the visual arts a part of your world. They believe art should be engaging, approachable and, above all else, fun. At Abington Art Center, you won’t just observe art. You’ll touch it, feel it, create it and be a part of it.
