Mission

GFS' mission is to promote an understanding and appreciation of contemporary sculpture for all people, which it strives to fulfill by operating a 42-acre sculpture park, major galleries, and a year round multi-disciplinary arts education program.

About

Visitor Services (includes Guest Services department): designed to provide information services, process membership benefits, coordinate tour groups, perform introductory lectures, assist with special events and collect entrance fees. Staff monitors multiple park entry points as well as information desks located throughout the park. In 2018, GFS continued to expand its evening hours as well as add programs in the evenings that focused on increasing attendance. Additionally, we also opened on several Mondays to accommodate more weekday visitors. Guest Services staff incresed by 52% over the previous year to accommodate guest needs and assure artwork safety. The staff is diverse and includes many who speak additional languages which allows us to be more welcoming to our growing and diverse audience. All staff and volunteers now have the option to display additional languages they speak on their nametag to indentify as multi-lingual.
