The Sculpture Center

Founded in 1989, The Sculpture Center is one of the only 501(c)(3) cultural institutions providing critical resources to sculptors along their journey. We believe that no matter their career stage, artists of all voices and backgrounds are vital for envisioning a better world and contributing to the communities we want to live in. We enrich the cultural landscape through our five tenets and hope you will share our vision to become a regionally and nationally recognized cultural space for sculptors where creative ideas, experiences and the community connect and flourish.

Exhibition. Experience year-round contemporary sculpture exhibitions and installations in a historic art space in Cleveland’s University Circle, the country’s “Best Arts District.”

Creation. Encounter new works by artists who are given opportunities to create without commercial constraints, including early career artists participating in our keystone Revealed exhibition program.

Mentorship. Connect with artists and partners and share opportunities to thrive.

Conversation + Engagement. Be stimulated by compelling conversations and dialogue with a broad and

inclusive community.

Development + Support. Find resources and career enrichment with support opportunities for artists.

TSC’s keystone program begun in 1991, Revealed, offers 4-6 artists annually in the first ten years of their career the opportunity to create work for a solo exhibition. Revealed helps leverage gallery representation, direct grant funding, university positions, tenure, and most importantly, the creation of work without commercial constraints. Revealed has advanced the professions of nearly 200 sculptors who have gone on to highly regarded careers.
