Founded in 2003, the exhibit brings public art to the downtown Cloverdale Business District to advance knowledge of and interest in public art that enriches Cloverdale and fosters a spirit of cooperation and fellowship among artists and the community. This display of high quality sculptures presents to the Cloverdale community and visitors the transmutation of material and the imagination of the sculptor. The Sculpture Trail is a public art museum without walls, free to the public to explore, discuss and enjoy.

It’s public! Everyone has access to public art. It’s directly in the public sphere and not confined to galleries or museums. It enriches Cloverdale’s physical environments, bringing streetscapes to life. It also adds enormous value to the cultural, aesthetic and economic vitality of a community. Public art contributes to a community’s identity, fosters community pride and a sense of belonging, and enhances the quality of life for its residents and visitors.
