Non-Profit Sculpture Park
Salem Art Works (SAW) is a contemporary art center and sculpture park
Located on a 119-acre former dairy farm in rural Washington County, New York. Founded in 2005 by artist Anthony Cafritz, SAW’s mission is to support both emerging and established artists in all artistic media in the creation of new and progressive work, as well as promote the understanding and appreciation of contemporary art within the region. At the core of SAW’s philosophy is the belief that inspired new works are created in an open and supportive environment encouraging interaction among artists and disciples. Based upon this tenet, SAW offers opportunities in four focal areas: cultural events, exhibitions, educational workshops, and artist programs.
The rural landscape of Salem Art Works sprawls an impressive 119.4 acres, hosting a rotating roster of sculptures by regional, national, and international artists throughout the Cary Hill Sculpture Park. The park is an active vignette promoting a wide array of performances, events, and exhibitions. Artists live and work in the Sculpture Park providing a unique experience fully immersing themselves within the landscape. The public is invited to experience Cary Hill Sculpture Park at their own pace from dawn to dusk
