Lynden Inc. Mission
The Lynden Sculpture Garden operates as a laboratory at the intersection of art, nature, and culture. We work with artists, educators, students, and our community to create, support, and share experiences that integrate our collection of monumental sculptures and temporary installations, Lynden’s community of artists, and the natural ecology of our 40-acre site. Since opening our doors to the public in 2010, we have imagined Lynden as a place for all Milwaukeeans and have developed relationships and programs, such as Call & Response and HOME in dialogue with diverse urban populations. This model allows us to function efficiently with a small staff, to remain flexible enough to align with local and national initiatives, and to have a national impact while sustaining a local resource.
