Grounds for Sculpture

 

A treasure of fascinating sculptures set amidst beautifully landscaped gardens is less than a hour from Philadelphia.  Grounds For Sculpture is a 42-acre public sculpture park located in Hamilton, NJ. It was founded in 1992 on the site of the former New Jersey State Fairgrounds by J. Seward Johnson to promote an understanding of and appreciation for contemporary sculpture for all people.  It includes a wide variety of amazing sculpture, with many surprises awaiting visitors as they explore the grounds.  Walkways and woodland paths wind throughout the park, with a variety of sculptures tucked away in unpredictable places.  And there are quite a few friendly peacocks strutting throughout the grounds, including an amazing white one.
