We’re excited to share a first look at the renderings for the (Un)Known Project Sculpture Park - a vision that is moving closer to reality thanks to the investment and support of many of you!
Along Louisville’s Ohio River, this sacred space is being created to honor the names and stories of enslaved Black people, hold space for reflection and remembrance, and invite each of us to consider our responsibility to the histories we inherit and the future we help shape.
The Sculpture Park builds upon the permanent installations already present at the site, including On the Banks of Freedom and In Our Elders’ Footprints. Later this year, we look forward to unveiling a new America 250 installation by artist Ellex Swavoni, adding another chapter to the stories held within this landscape.
The renderings offer a glimpse of what the completed park can become: a welcoming public space where art, history, landscape, and community come together. With new sculptures, pathways, seating, signage, trees, and other improvements, we anticipate completing the Sculpture Park in 2027.
We are all stewards of this space.
As we enter the final stages of bringing the Sculpture Park to fruition, we invite you to be part of its completion. Your investment will help transform these renderings into a permanent public space for remembrance, learning, reflection, and connection.
