The garden includes works by prominent artists such as Isamu Noguchi, Scott Burton, Guy Dill, Jim Wolfe and Ken Macklin.The Creative Arts Guild also maintains an indoor art gallery, which hosts rotating exhibits by local, regional and national artists. The sculpture garden welcomes approximately 10,000 visitors each year and is an educational resource for regional schools.〔 == History == The sculpture garden was launched in October 2010 after local businessperson and arts patron Robert Webb raised funds for the purchase of twelve garden scale and monumental works by U.S. and Canadian artists to complement a vintage Noguchi piece donated by George and Rhenda Spence and five works that had been gifted to the Creative Guild by artists who participated in a 2003 juried exhibition curated by John Raymond Henry Webb worked with Guild executive director Terry Tomasello to grow the garden gradually, adding new work periodically during each subsequent year to maintain public interest while cultivating a sense of a unified whole in the work. The garden now features 40 works by artists from the U.S., Canada and Europe.〔
