Bemidji Sculpture Walk

"Art tells a story, it gives and receives meaning."

The Bemidji Sculpture Walk has promoted public art in Bemidji since 1999. Your interest and participation helps us create meaningful experiences in our downtown for residents and visitors alike. Thank you for visiting the walk and sharing your personal experiences with the public art community.

We are pleased to have new sculptures displayed each year. In 2020, 16 new sculptures will be on display, along with Encore or Returning pieces that spend 2-3 years on the Walk. Pieces in the Permanent Collection, murals around town and special works like the Shaynowishkung (Chief Bemidji) statue in Library Park and the Veterans Memorial in the Greenwood Cemetary can also be found on our Art Map. Most New and Encore work are available for private sale. Contact us for information.

Our talented artists live by their work, and most of the art you see every year is available for private sale. Your visits to the walk, your support of our business sponsors, and your personal memberships allow us to bring high quality work to the Walk and reward artists with honorariums and prizes.
