Franconia Sculpture Park is now accepting applications for our 2013 artist opportunities.Located on 20-acres in the scenic St. Croix River Valley, 45 miles northeast of Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN, USA. Franconia offers a place where artists live, create, and exhibit three-dimensional artwork all in one location. Artists push themselves to achieve new visions at Franconia, beyond what they ever thought was possible. Each artist undergoes a transformation, leaving with a renewed focus, new skills, and lifelong connections.

The park is free and open to the public 365 days a year and offers a unique environment for the public to interact with the artists at work. Franconia supports emerging artists and upholds the work of career artists, with artist programs that support more than 40 artists each year. In Franconia’s first 16 years we have supported the careers of more than 661 emerging and established; regional, national and international artists.Currently there are 105 sculptures and installations on exhibit at the park.
