The walk goes on rain or shine, so wear comfortable walking shoes and dress appropriately for this outdoor tour. On August 16, 2000, Ohio’s governor declared and formally recognized Hamilton as  “The City of Sculpture.” This sparked a vision for a group of community members who officially formed Hamilton, Ohio City of Sculpture, Inc. a 503c organization. Since that watershed event, a full Board of Trustees has been established and many new sculptures have been installed in public spaces around Hamilton. Other organizations and businesses are being energized through this vision and action. OUR MISSION The mission of Hamilton, Ohio City of Sculpture is to promote the recognition of Hamilton as a cultural community through obtaining sculptures to be placed in public spaces for the enjoyment of citizens and visitors.
