Grounds for Sculpture

Grounds for Sculpture is one of New Jersey's most beautiful outdoor sculpture parks, located on 42 acres of former New Jersey State Fairgrounds land in Hamilton. The nonprofit park, founded in 1992 by John Seward Johnson II, features an ever-changing collection of contemporary art sculptures, as well as a permanent collection of over 270 large-scale works by American and international artists.


Significant works by artist Seward Johnson are on display, including his Forever Marilyn sculpture of Marilyn Monroe and his Unconditional Surrender, which recreated the iconic V-J Day Times Square photograph. Six indoor galleries are also on display, along with special events such as art classes, lectures, and moonlight garden tours throughout the year.


Grounds For Sculpture is also a garden and arboretum, with paved terraces, pergolas, and courtyards juxtaposed with natural woodlands, ponds, and bamboo groves. The Grounds have over 100 species and cultivars, as well as over 2,000 trees, with many rare and unusual finds.


Visitors can learn about contemporary sculpture through a variety of educational programs, including workshops for adults and children, artist residencies and lectures, tours for adults, schoolchildren, and toddlers, and touch tours for the blind. In addition, the park hosts a variety of family events, music and dance performances, shopping at the Museum Shop, and dining, including New Jersey's premier dining destination, Rat's Restaurant.
