St. Augustine Beach Sculpture Garden

Thomas Glover developed the idea of a sculpture garden for the community in 1994. Glover and Marianne Lerbs, his wife, worked with artists Harold Locke, Gary Terbugge, Deborah Olivieri, and Alvin Felch to create eighteen stone and metal pieces they initially intended to donate to the City of St. Augustine. The City was unable to designate a satisfactory location for the work, so the artists looked elsewhere. In 2009, the City of St. Augustine Beach provided space in Lakeside Park for the sculpture garden and by 2010 the pieces – a modern embodiment of the city’s history – had been installed for residents and visitors to explore.

The St. Augustine Sculpture Garden is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the cultural values of the Community of St. Augustine Beach and its surroundings.  Come join us to enjoy and share the St. Augustine Sculpture Garden at Lakeside Park, adjacent to the St. Augustine Beach Police Department and City Hall Building, on A1A S. The Sculpture Garden is a valuable gift to the Community and the sculptures have been appraised over three-quarters of a million dollars. The Park is a cultural landmark for this historic area, and it is free to the public to visit and admire.
