Up Coming Events

September 17 through December 20 Water Sparks
Central Texas’ natural beauty is captured in an exhibit of elegant glass-and-limestone sculptures on the grounds through mid- December. Damian Priour’s largest piece in the collection of four chairs is more than 7-feet-tall. All were sandblasted or hand carved and created in Priour’s studio in Austin, and several include glass inserts that evoke water. The sculptures will be featured in the central gardens of the Wildflower Center, in conjunction with a display of his water-inspired works indoors and outside at Umlauf Sculpture Garden & Museum. Come here Priour speak at the Wildflower Center Auditorium at 12:30 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 4 about the inspiration for his work, including the sculptures on display from the Texas Chair Project he initiated with other state artists.
