For the first time ever, Lake Sammamish State Park will be home to a temporary sculpture exhibit. “Art in the Park”. The exhibit featuring 10 local artists will open on August 12th, 2021.

A call to artists went out last spring and the artists were selected by a jury panel in June. Some of the submissions were of existing work while others were uniquely created for this exhibit. The sculptures represent diverse styles and incorporate a variety of materials including wood, tiles, fiber, and steel.

Artists include Grayson Morris, Abigail Kinney, Ed McCarthy, EmmEmm and Alexis Kandra, Jacob Foran, Nina Vichayapai, Ken and Naoko Morisawa, Haiying Wu, Lucirlei De Andrade, and Tina Hays.

To view the art, visit the park any day, dawn to dusk. The expo will be set up in the area around the Kitchen Shelter.

A daily parking fee of $10 is required, or an annual Discover Pass.

Discover Passes can be purchased at www.discoverpass.wa.gov

The exhibit is generously sponsored by the City of Issaquah Arts Commission, Banner Bank, Miriam and John Friedman, and Regency Centers.
