Downtown Sculpture Walk

The City of Lee’s Summit thrives on our arts, culture and heritage. In 2020, the Downtown Sculpture Walk was established to make art accessible to our citizens and visitors. The annual outdoor public art program features vibrant and unique three-dimensional artworks showcased within the public spaces in the downtown area. A jury of community members selects the artworks created by acclaimed public artists from across the country and the region. These artworks are meant to inspire, entertain and educate while providing additional aesthetic elements to the public space. Sculptures are displayed on loan to the City for one year.

Artist Statement: Besides my insatiable desire to design, fabricate, deliver and install art to the public… wherever I can, whenever I can, as much as I can, the following poem best describes my interest in public art: Open love letter to public art: What I love about you, public art, is that you are meant for everyone You require no entry fee, cover charge or special invitation. Set free from the galleries, museums and private homes of the past. You're out there, in the wild, unapologetic, yet vulnerable, and for everyone to see! You must be strong, durable, able to withstand all types of weather, public scrutiny and the test of time! You can be interactive, kinetic or stationary, and come in so many forms, In all shapes and sizes. You invite discussion and bring the world of visual arts to people’s everyday lives. For all these reasons and many more, I will adore you for the rest of my life! Hopelessly smitten.
