SculptureNow was founded in 1998 by a group of people involved in the arts in the Berkshires, who became aware of a need to promote the experience and knowledge of sculpture through exhibitions and educational outreach, and to offer artists venues for showing their work in our community.
For the past eleven years we have collaborated with The Mount, Edith Wharton’s Home in Lenox, MA. The exhibition on the beautiful grounds there have received rave reviews and was seen by 60,000 visitors.
LENOX — A group of teenagers, vision-impaired adults, artists and volunteers came together on Thursday to chisel away stereotypes about disability.
Ten students were invited to help other volunteers usher four adults from Berkshire County Arc and Berkshire Benevolent Association for The Blind, to “see” selected works from the SculptureNow exhibit currently on display outdoors throughout the campus of The Mount.
