The Lynden Sculpture Garden opened to the public in 2010. The former estate of Milwaukee industrialist Harry Bradley and fashion entrepreneur Peg Bradley, Lynden is located on 44 acres in the village of River Hills, Wisconsin, just fifteen minutes from downtown Milwaukee. Lynden operates as a laboratory, continually re-imagining Lynden's landscape, collection, and place in the community through indoor and outdoor exhibitions, performances, residencies, and hands-on education programs. 

Lynden is home to an international collection of more than fifty monumental outdoor sculptures, collected between 1962 and 1978, and temporary installations. The landscape—flat farmland when the Bradleys purchased Lynden in the 1920s—is a mosaic of formal gardens, sculptures, cool-season grass lawn, ponds, ravines, savanna, shrubland, and a notable tree collection. 

Lynden develops public programs in collaboration with the communities we serve, focusing on place-based K-12 education; CALL & RESPONSE, an artist-driven initiative that celebrates the radical Black imagination as a means to re-examine the past and imagine a better future; and HOME, a space of leading, coming together, and celebrating refugees through art, food, and performance.
