Public Reception for Community Sculpture: Outlook

This event is FREE!!
Josephine Sculpture Park will host Minnesota sculptor Bridget Beck from Oct. 25-Nov. 2. Bridget will be conducting on-site community workshops during the days of this residency at the park. Everyone is invited to participate in the “Birdhouse” building workshops and create their own birdhouses that will become part of the finished sculpture. Your birdhouse will be of your own design and can be as realistic, functional, or artistic as you desire. Not a builder?? Well, you are still invited to stop by and see what’s happening out here any day during the residency. No previous skills are needed and all ages are welcome but the construction is geared more toward older children and adults. There is no cost to participate and materials will be provided, although donations are graciously accepted. Don’t miss this awesome opportunity to create your own work of art and exhibit it at JSP!!! This program is supported by The Kentucky Foundation for Women.
Final sculpture unveiling and public reception Tue. Nov. 1st from 4-6pm - FREEEEEE!!!!!!!

PAST "UPDATES":
