Seward Johnson Sculptures in Hopewell Township, NJ

Sightseeing in our backyard continued this week when we tracked down the Seward Johnson sculptures populating Hopewell Township, NJ. The Hopewell Valley Arts Council (HVAC) and The Johnson Atelier (Mr. Johnson was a resident of Hopewell when he died in March 2020) teamed up to present the exhibit "Celebrating the Everyday" by displaying ten of his sculptures in Hopewell Borough, Hopewell Township, Pennington, and Washington Crossing for six months. We only found nine. There is one by the Hopewell Elementary School we could not find.

Can we dance here, Mommy

His art is meant to be interacted with. We have pictures taken over the years with Ashley interacting with the sculptures. Us adults need to channel our inner child and do the same more often.
