About Gallery Without Walls

Gallery Without Walls is Lake Oswego's public art program, an outdoor exhibition of sculpture placed along the streets and plazas of downtown. It combines a permanent collection with rotating cohorts of works loaned by artists for two years, totaling more than 80 pieces, and new sculptures are installed each year. The Arts Council of Lake Oswego, based on A Avenue, publishes a free walking-tour map and an interactive Google map and can arrange docent-led tours. The sculptures are viewable any time at no cost.
