During construction of the Bloch Building, the Sculpture Park has undergone extensive changes. Many of the sculptures were removed to make way for the new building as well as updates to the Nelson-Atkins Building. While they were out of the Park, many of the sculptures were given some attention by our conservation staff. A few new pieces were acquired and have been installed for the first time.
On Saturday, Sept. 30 we are celebrating the reopening of the Park with a day of free, outdoor activities including art projects, family tours, a fabric play space, a soccer clinic, a dance performance and a screening of The Incredibles.
Bring your own picnic or enjoy snacks and cool beverages available from vendors in the Park. Everyone is welcome to this afternoon, made possible by the generosity of the Hall Family Foundation.
