Preview Party: 37th Annual Sculpture in the Garden

Join us for the Preview Party for the 37th annual Sculpture in the Garden exhibit!

Sculpture in the Garden (September 14 – December 7, 2025) unites the work of local artists with the landscapes of the North Carolina Botanical Garden.

At the Preview Party on Saturday, September 13, you’ll get first viewing of the show (and the first chance to purchase pieces), meet the artists, and enjoy a catered reception.

We’ll announce the winners of Best in Show and Honorable Mentions, selected by a jurist, and you’ll be able to cast your vote for the People’s Choice Award.

Tickets are $40 per person; half of each ticket price supports Sculpture in the Garden and is tax-deductible. Event is rain or shine. Attendance is limited, so register today!
