Elmhurst Sculpture Garden

Elmhurst Sculpture Garden is an outdoor community garden where artists can exhibit sculptures, multimedia installations, musical and dance performances.

The garden is located one block away from the Queens Center Mall and near the Long Island Expressway in the neighborhood of Elmhurst, Queens, New York City.

[1] Formally a vacant lot, the area was renovated by local artist Yvonne Shortt and a group of volunteers in 2017 in an effort to create an urban space where artists can display sculptures and multimedia art pieces.

[2][3] With additional funding provided by the Burning Man Global Arts Grant, Shortt and volunteers from the community were able to expand the public art space.
