Important: Installation date has changed from Sept. 5 to SEPT 12, and show closing date has changed from Sept. 26 to October 3.

In this terrifically difficult moment, when so much artistic, cultural, and musical much cannot happen, we are working hard to put on the 2020 Outdoor sculpture at Maudslay show in September as we have planned.

We will be making adjustments to all aspects of the show to make sure that it is safe for artists and for visitors, including online applications and new ways to guide visitors around the show.  We'll share information here as plans develop.

Our theme (chosen, amazingly, before all this) is PASSAGE .  It's full of possibility for artists to work with (or ignore, in our tradition of respecting artists' inspirations).
