Stone Sea Guided Experience
Gain new perspectives on Andy Goldsworthy’s Stone Sea as you walk throughout this large-scale outdoor sculpture. During this 20-minute guided experience, a Saint Louis Art Museum docent will provide insights into this work of art—commissioned by the Museum and designed by the artist for the space it occupies—while you explore the sculpture. We invite you to take photos for personal use.
This experience involves walking on uneven surfaces. Please wear flat shoes (no high heels). This event is weather-dependent; if the Museum cancels due to inclement weather, tickets will be refunded.
Capacity for each entry time is limited. Tickets are required, and advance booking is strongly encouraged.
