Located about 20 miles from Boston, deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum is at 30 acres the largest park of its kind in New England. It was established in 1950 in order to renew interest in sculptures and to become a major sculpture park.

There are about 30 large-scale sculptures in the park, most on loan from various owners and artists.

The exhibited sculptures are constantly changing, representing high quality contemporary artworks and site-specific installations.

DeCordova holds a range of year-round activities that include snowshoe tours, nature tours, yoga in the park, curator and artist conversations, special talks, events, and screenings.

DeCordova is home to Lincoln Nursery School, probably the only American preschool located within a contemporary art museum.
