The goal is to be as inclusive as possible and to encourage and celebrate emerging and established artists. Phase of the Sculpture Walk will add six additional pieces to the existing twelve currently on display.

Sculptures will be displayed for a two-year term after which time they may be replaced through a new Call for Artists, unless they are purchased. The Town of Sidney will also encourage and support the sale of artwork by providing the opportunity for corporate and individual sponsors to purchase pieces directly from the artist for the purpose of donating it to the Town s permanent collection.
