Embrace got an upgrade tonight!
Did you know that the volunteers on the City of Sculpture board are responsible for the maintenance and care for our public sculptures in Hamilton?
In addition to raising funds to pay for new projects, we do everything from cleaning and re-painting sculptures to trimming the plants around them.

"When it Rains it Pours" by Miles Metzger is one of the most popular sculptures in Hamilton. This piece was discovered by Gayl Underwood (Richards Pizza) on a trip in St. Helena, CA. She loved the sculpture so much that she knew she needed to get it to Hamilton. Gayl contacted City of Sculpture and we worked together to purchase the piece and find the perfect location for it.
You can see "When it Rains it Pours" in person at Armstead Park, at the corner of Main and D.

You may have noticed that one of our sculptures got a new look this summer. “Adrift” was created by Roscoe Wilson, Professor of Art at Miami University Regionals and City of Sculpture board member. Roscoe used drift wood found along the Great Miami River to create this piece.
