The Burlington Waterfront Sculpture Trail has returned to Spencer Smith Park.
The exhibit, now in its third season, is supported by the Dan Lawrie International Sculpture Collection and promotes free public access to sculptures.

Lawrie, a Hamilton businessperson and Burlington resident, has long been committed to this cause, and his collection has partnered with several local organizations — including the Royal Botanical Gardens, Joseph Brant Museum and the Art Gallery of Burlington — over the years.
Artists from across the country are paid an exhibition fee to present their work along the trail, and the Lawrie collection team helps sell the works to drive additional support to Canadian artists.

Along with 30 pieces of sculpture displayed on pedestals, the project includes five retail window galleries along Brant Street.
This isn't the only art to enjoy in the park. The Indigenous Art Walk features paintings by Indigenous artists.
The sculpture trail exhibit runs until June 1.
