The Sculpture Garden is an outdoor exhibition of sculptures from many different artists, including the famous Spoonbridge and Cherry. It takes up 11 acres and is one of the largest urban sculpture gardens in the country.
The Minneapolis Sculpture Garden is an 11-acre (4.5 ha) park in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in the United States. It is located north of the Walker Art Center, which operates it in coordination with the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board. It reopened on June 10, 2017, after a reconstruction that resulted in the Walker Art Center and Sculpture Garden being unified into one 19-acre campus. It is one of the largest urban sculpture gardens in the United States, with 40 permanent art installations and several other pieces that are moved in and out periodically.
