Chicago, IL 60605

The Columbia College Garden, formerly known as the Sculpture Garden, is a 10,000 square foot space located at the corner of South Wabash and East 11th Street in Chicago. Established in 1989 and renovated in 2019, it serves as a venue for small-scale theatrical and musical productions as well as various events, featuring a blend of art and nature through its native Illinois plantings.

The garden's origins trace back to an exhibition in 1990, showcasing large steel sculptures by artist Edward McCullough and later installations by regional artists like Tom Taylor and Ellen Nasvik. Over the years, the site has evolved under the guidance of organizations such as Openlands to promote the integration of art and natural environments in an urban setting.
