Sioux Falls, SD (February 6, 2013) -- SculptureWalk goes from the sidewalks of downtown

original sculptures will be on display as part of the SculptureWalk Expo, the single largest free

The free SculptureWalk Expo brings 48 sculptors from the U.S. and around the world to meet

with the public during the weekend exhibit. A full range of sculpture styles will be represented

from impressionistic to realistic in various media including stone, steel, bronze and wood. While

browsing the art, people can also purchase many of the pieces, sized and priced for any private

or commercial setting, or attend artist-led immersion seminars.

“This indoor EXPO show will coincide with the installation of our 55 new outdoor sculptures that

same weekend,” says Jim Clark, SculptureWalk Director. “With literally hundreds of sculptures

on display both inside and outside It’s an exciting opportunity for serious art patrons and casual

tourists alike to come to South Dakota, long recognized as the nation's sculpture state"

“For ten years SculptureWalk has contributed tremendously to our vibrant downtown and the

Washington Pavilion is proud to be part of this expansion program in our building for it's opening

weekend,” says Larry Toll, Washington Pavilion CEO/President. South Dakota Tourism and the

Sioux Falls Convention and Visitor’s Bureau will sponsor the exhibition.

About SculptureWalk

Started in 2003, SculptureWalk is an exhibit of original outdoor sculptures displayed year-round

in downtown Sioux Falls, SD. The sculptures are owned by sculptors from around the world and

loaned to the exhibit. From May through September, the public votes for The People’s Choice

sculpture, and that sculpture is purchased by the City of Sioux Falls. More than 300,000 people

visit SculptureWalk each year, with more than 450 sculptures displayed since the event started.

Artwork may be purchased after being displayed in SculptureWalk and many pieces from

SculptureWalk are in private collections or donated to public organizations. In 2013,

SculptureWalk added the SculptureWalk Expo, two day indoor sculpture show running

concurrently during the installation weekend of the year-long outdoor exhibit.
