Commissions North

Sculpture in the Park presents contemporary sculpture and seeks to engage new audiences through family sculpture days, tours and talks by artists. The annual shows started in 2003 and each has developed a different theme curated by Ann Elliot. The 2005 show brought together artists who had taken part in 25 years of the British Art Show. Sculpture in the Park was initiated by Durham County Council with Commissions North. Its success has led the Council to explore the potential for a major public art commission, 'The Durham Skybowl', on the same site by County Hall.
