Sota Pop: Fraconia Sculpture Park

The nonprofit arts organization operates an outdoor sculpture park, an active artist residency and community arts programming.

The group serves 40 artists each year through an active artist residency program and over 100,000 annual visitors through an arts learning program, the group’s website said.

FSP is home to over 100 sculptures that are always changing

FSP awards fellowships and internships to new, mid-career and established visual artists every year.

The mission of the park is to “provide physically and intellectually wide-open spaces where all are inspired to participate in the creative process,” the group’s website said. It adds that the vision of the group is to create a place “where artists may get fresh perspectives on their work during informal conversation; where a visitor may learn the context for an artwork directly from its creator; and where there are numerous opportunities for these kinds of spontaneous connections to happen in a welcoming and wide-open environment.”

The park is free and open to the public from dawn to dusk all days of the year. The park also accepts free-will donations.

Tours of the 43-acre park operate from May to October from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
