Grounds For Sculpture & Polish Food
This location is shown only to members
Please CLICK HERE before rsvping.
Grounds For Sculpture is a mostly outdoor sculpture park with 4-6 indoor exhibits. The words that come into my mind when I think of Grounds For Sculpture are "incredible" and "fun". If you have been there, then I know you love it. If not, you should try it. To get the idea, Google "Grounds For Sculpture", then click on 'images'.
The place is as large as a college campus, so make sure you look at this map to see where we meet: the lobby of the Seward Johnson Center For Arts- far left on map. This google satellite map should also be helpful.
Make sure to enter the Grounds from Sculptures Way, then turn onto Fairgrounds Rd. Pay at the toll booth, then turn left, almost a U turn, to pass by the Center.
The cost for entry is $12 which you pay at the toll both. Afterwards those interested can go for dinner at an inexpensive polish restaurant, Rozmaryn in Trenton. 925 North Olden Ave, Trenton, 08638
Link showing route to restaurant. 5-10 minutes away.
Caution: You should be able to walk 2-3 hours without much of a break.
You should have recently hiked 4 miles in conditions detailed above. Mostly flat. Some small hills.
To carpool from Hill House meet at 1030 am. Each carpooler chips in $7 at the start. Email me 3-4 days in advance and receive a reply.
