소크라테스 서클
소크라테스 서클은 참여, 옹호, 자선 활동을 통해 공원의 생명을 유지하는 이웃과 지지자들의 모임입니다.
소크라테스 서클 회원들은 우리의 공유된 공공 공간 관리에 적극적으로 참여함으로써 공원에 기여할 뿐만 아니라 지원합니다.
For four decades, supporters of Socrates Sculpture Park have played a vital role in ensuring that the Park remains a place where artists can experiment, neighbors can gather, and visitors from across New York City can experience contemporary art freely in an open and accessible environment.
소크라테스 서클 brings together individuals who share a commitment to creative expression, public space, and community care—and who believe in the power of art to shape civic life.
Whether through monthly support, annual leadership gifts, or active advocacy, members of Socrates Circle help make it possible for the Park to remain free and open 365 days a year while advancing ambitious artistic projects and public programs.
