Formerly the secret garden of Salt Lake, Gilgal
Sculpture Garden is now a public city park, open daily for the enjoyment
of all. Located at 749 East 500 South in Salt Lake City, Gilgal
Sculpture Garden was envisioned, designed and created by Thomas
Battersby Child, Jr. in the mid-twentieth century. Tucked in the
middle of the block behind houses and businesses, many are still
unaware of its existence and enjoy a true sense of discovery when
they visit the garden for the first time. Gilgal Sculpture Garden
contains 12 original sculptures and over 70 stones engraved with
scriptures, poems, and literary texts. As a whole, Gilgal Sculpture
Garden is significant as the only identified "visionary art environment"
in Utah.
Enjoy an interactive tour of Gilgal Sculpture
Garden complete with dozens of photos, audio explainers and more.
