Description

Andres Institute of Art is a 140 acre sculpture park. Our park contains miles of wooded trails, beautiful vistas, and peaceful settings. Each year the institute hosts “Bridges and Connections”, an international sculpture symposium, that brings together artists from different cultures to create sculptures which remain on site. It is the combination of art and nature that makes a visit to Andres Institute of Art a unique and memorable occasion. The grounds at Andres Institute of Art are open to the public year round -free of charge- dawn to dusk, and we encourage you to come and enjoy the sculptures along the well-marked trails.

Volunteer, intern opportunities.

Mission

"Andres Institute of Art shall serve and advance the intellectual and social well being of the public by educating and training artists, by promoting the integration of art and technology, and by supporting fine arts."

History

A modern studio building and 140 acres of woodland, and quarries was generously given for use by Paul Andres to Andres Institute of Art, a non-profit organization. Since 1999 the Institute has hosted sculptors from around the world who have created magnificent art work which is displayed prominently along the walking trails in the park. Throughout the year workshops and educational programs are conducted.
