Opened in 1998 by sculptor Myrna Orsini, the 5-acre (2.0 ha) park features sculpture gardens.
In 1992, after visiting an art symposia in Europe, founder Myrna Orsini and her business partner Doris Coonrod purchased land totaling 68 acres (28 ha) for the park; an additional parcel for a shop was purchased two years later.
By July, the month the site was to shutter, the park was able to remain open after liability insurance funding, as well as maintenance volunteers, was organized by a local group of leaders and the Woodland Trail Greenway Association.
[12] Local contributors include Valentine Welman,[13] Justin Hahn, Tom Yody, and Orsini; international artists such as Urs Twellmann and Doug Neil have also displayed their work at the park.
[5][13] Guests are greeted at the entrance to a welded sculpture of bicycle parts and the stone works created at the opening are situated on the main path to the studio.
