Contributions Toward the Purchase of "Just Chillin'" by Jack Hill are Still Needed!
We are very pleased to announce our newest acquisition, "Just Chillin'" -- an exceptional bronze sculpture by artist Jack Hill. Also known affectionately as Banana on a Bench, this humorous personification of a banana relaxing on a park bench has been purchased and installed at Saul Alexander Playground. Summerville Miracle League is located next to the Playground.
Sculpture in the South continues to bring culturally relevant art to be experienced by all citizens! The purchase and installation of Just Chillin’ represents Sculpture in the South’s ongoing development of our public collection. Our other main focus is to maintain the existing outdoor sculpture museum. Donations in any amount are appreciated as are volunteers. Please help us to expand and maintain the sculptures and to celebrate the addition of this whimsical masterpiece to the newly renovated playground. Jack Hill’s "Just Chillin'" is sure to delight and inspire all who experience it, now, and into the future.
