Grounds for Sculpture

Last week was Mikey's birthday, so on Saturday I decided to take him to Grounds for Sculpture which is right in Hamilton, NJ for part of his birthday celebration. Since Mikey is a sculptor I thought it would be perfect. Neither of us had ever been there, but we both had heard how awesome it is. It's just this big outdoor scupture garden with over 240 contemporary sculptures. You can check out the website at www.groundsforsculpture.org. Here are some of my favorite photos from Saturday, although it was really hard to pick just these. I'll have to upload more into a slideshow. It was just so beautiful there!

All the sculptures are just perfectly placed within the serene landscape of the grounds. They just fit right in.



Oh and there are also free-roaming peacocks.

This was one of my favorites. Pegasus. I really love the organic shapes.

Some of the sculptures recreate famous paintings so you feel like you are right inside of a work of art.

This is us being excited that we are inside a work of art.

There were also ducks! I love ducks.

Below is another one of my favorites. It looks like an elephant head to me, with the big trunk in front.

This is Mikey sticking his head in the line of the shot I was trying to get above.

There is also a restaurant just nestled in the beautiful scenery. We didn't eat there, but we're going to next time. It's supposed to be really good.
