TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — A world of sculpture, ranging in size from no-bigger-than-a-breadbox to larger-than-life, will be on display at this weekend's 2025 Sculpture Festival Show and Sale.
“There’s absolutely something for everybody,” Sculpture Tucson Arts and Program Manager Robin McArdle said.
The yearly event has artists coming in from all over to show off their works. It is put on by Sculpture Tucson, a local nonprofit dedicated to promoting the art form and the artists behind the medium.
“Sculptors needed an advocate and that’s what we decided to do wherever we could to help sculptors become more successful, so that we’d have more of them, because it’s so important we feel for the community to have sculptures in our lives,” Sculpture Tucson Co-Founder Jeff Timan said.
The main event takes place Saturday, March 29 - Sunday, March 30 at Brandi Fenton Memorial Park, 3420 E. River Road.
More than 60 sculptors will be present to showcase their works.
“Tucson has embraced this festival. It’s really difficult for sculptors to get their large monumental pieces out,” McArdle explained. “Obviously, you see a lot of these that are not going to fit in galleries.”
Bonus: There will be food trucks on-site.
The festival runs from 9:30 a.m. - 4 p.m. and is free to attend.
