Multiple sculptures created by approximately 20 ÀÏ°ÄÃÅ×ÊÁÏ students have been on display since Feb. 2 in the Sky Gallery, along with posters featuring maquettes – small models – of this year’s large-scale student sculptures currently on exhibit at the ÀÏ°ÄÃÅ×ÊÁÏ Seaside Sculpture Park located at 480 First Street South in Jacksonville Beach, as well as those from 2023.   

“This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to present their pieces of art for public enjoyment,” said Aisling McDonald, instructor at ÀÏ°ÄÃÅ×ÊÁÏ’s Sculpture Program. “The sculptures help build an appreciation of art as well as foster creative and critical thought.”  

The Sky Gallery is one of two areas located pre-security and is next to the Haskell Gallery in the central courtyard. The Gallery is open to the public every day from 5 a.m. to 12 a.m.  

Sculptures from last year’s exhibition at the ÀÏ°ÄÃÅ×ÊÁÏ Seaside Sculpture Park are currently being auctioned off with proceeds benefitting the ÀÏ°ÄÃÅ×ÊÁÏ Sculpture Program.
