Sixteen sculptures by artists from across the Eastern United states now have temporary homes in downtown Salisbury, at local colleges and throughout our community. The 2019 Salisbury Sculpture Show runs from May 2019 through January 31, 2020.
Carefully selected from an open application process, the works represent a wide range of sculptural styles and materials. Each sculpture is placed to best complement the piece and its setting. The first stop on your tour is the Visitor’s Center at 204 East Innes Street where you may pick up a brochure and begin your walking tour of the nine new sculptures within historic downtown Salisbury. Brochures are also available at Rowan Library, Rowan Museum, Waterworks Visual Arts Center and at local restaurants and galleries.
The 2019 Salisbury Sculpture Show is divided into two sections. The first section is our downtown sculpture show, which has been ongoing for the last eleven years. The Community section features sculptures throughout the Salisbury city limits and at local colleges. Local colleges first began participating seven years ago.
On your way in or out of town, take note of “Salisbury Foursome” at I-85 Exit 76, the permanent colorful 4-piece sculpture installed in each quadrant of the interchange.
