Sculpture and Nature
Woodmere's Outdoor Wonder presents significant examples of public sculpture set in harmony with our grounds and gardens. The museum's founder, Charles Knox Smith, found deep spiritual meaning in the beauty and cycles of nature. Today, Woodmere recognizes the Lenape people as the original inhabitants of Pennsylvania, and with their partnership seeks to be a steward of the land, water, and sky of Lenapehoking, their ancestral homeland.
