10 mi.

255 ft.

The route stays the same, but the sculptures along the route usually change from year to year. You really have to watch carefully or you might miss some of them. When we ride we typically stop at a few for photo ops. You will see several restaurants, micro-breweries, and murals as well. The route also goes through Fassnight Park, past Phelps Grove Park and the Springfield Art Museum.

Route Details

Much like bikes, public art has the ability to build and revitalize communities. The city of Springfield, Missouri understands this well. Through the [Springfield Sculpture Walk](https://sculpturewalkspringfield.org/sculptures/current-collection-2/), a pop-up outdoor museum, sculptures are displayed along city streets in an effort to rejuvenate public spaces by inviting residents to engage with the city in new ways. This route takes us to all the public sculptures by bike.

You can walk the short route or ride the longer route and take in all the sculptures. Most of the sculptures change each year, so you will be surprised!  I recommend you stop at your favorites and snap a few photos to highlight your ride, to spark memories and conversations with your friends! While you're [downtown](https://www.itsalldowntown.com/play/dining/) you might grab a beverage or a meal or even do some shopping!  Here are some of the permanent sculptures:

* [Alone In The Crowd](https://sculpturewalkspringfield.org/sculptures/jordan-valley-park-sculptures/alone-in-the-crowd/) @poi[AITC](54176915)
* [The Defeat of Bigfoot](https://sculpturewalkspringfield.org/sculptures/jordan-valley-park-sculptures/the-defeat-of-bigfoot/) @poi[TDOB](54176912)
* [Zugzwang](https://sculpturewalkspringfield.org/sculptures/jordan-valley-park-sculptures/zugzwang/) @poi[ZUG](54176913)

# More resources

Ride during daylight so you can take it all in. There's also an app you can [download](https://sculpturewalkspringfield.org/audio-tour/) that  you can listen to the artists tell you all about their sculptures, their inspiration, and more.

# Important Reminders

Don't get so caught up that you stop in the middle of the road to admire the sculptures. Be safe and if you need more information, advice, or maybe some riding buddies feel free to email me at r@2frys.com!
