A New Sculpture Trail in
Downtown Augusta!

 

The City of Augusta loves public art and we have ten new sculptures to show off downtown for our visitors and locals to enjoy. Three more sculptures from the second Sculpture Trail have been added to the City’s public art collection and can be seen on the Trail with the new sculptures.

 

 

The sculptures are on loan to the City of Augusta for two years. The new sculptures are available to purchase. Any pieces that are not purchased will be returned to the artists.

The Augusta Sculpture Trail

The Trail features 18 beautiful sculptures by nationally renowned artists on display in downtown Augusta from January 2025 until December 2026. 

Augusta’s Sculpture Trail public art sculptures are placed at intervals that make for a fun and easy outdoor walking trail. Selected locations use City of Augusta sidewalks for access, making them fully accessible for everyone to enjoy. The  route from the Augusta Common and along the Savannah River to the Fifth Street Pedestrian Bridge (which is now features a wonderful collection of murals) is a perfect Family outing!

 

The digital walking tour produced by Otocast can be accessed from any mobile device and will help visitors learn specifics about each work of art while they explore the Augusta Sculpture Trail.
