Over the past eleven years the Sculpture in the South Show and Sale has received regional recognition as one of South Carolina’s premier outdoor arts event and is fast being hailed nationally.  Fueled with tradition and layered with exceptional world class sculpture, this one of a kind event offers collectors and first time art enthusiasts a chance to mingle and chat with thirty-five leading fine art sculptors, representing a wide range of original artworks.

Next year’s show and sale will be held the weekend of May 15-16, 2010, in historic Summerville’s beautiful Azalea Park, home to many of the town’s permanent sculpture collection. Proceeds from the show & sale benefit Summerville’s Permanent Public Sculpture Program. We are pleased that 19 pieces of bronze sculpture have been purchased and installed since 1999 through the efforts of this organization.

Sculpture in the South promotes sculpture through education and the creation of a permanent public sculpture collection that enhances Summerville, South Carolina’s public spaces.

Stop by the Greater Summerville Dorchester County Chamber of Commerce at 402 N. Main Street and pick up a free Hands On Guide to Summerville’s Permanent Public Sculpture and take a wonderful leisurely tour of our collection.
