Holiday Lights has been a must see at the park for thirteen years running. Hundreds of light displays are pulled from storage every year to make this winter wonderland. A family favorite at the park “Candy Cane Lane,” is a quarter mile stretch of road lined with twelve-foot tall candy canes. Skaters and swans glide along the park’s lakes and tunnels of lights grace the park’s paths. Each year new ideas are explored, so there is something new for everyone to see. Over two million lights create the spectacular light displays that run through the park. Visitors drive through a magical world and are amazed as the park’s monumental sculptures glow among the lights.Sponsored by: Duplicator Sales Co. - Watson Gravel - Krogers Symmes Tavern - Ross IGA - Miller Coors - Hothead Burritos - Fifth Third Bank - Miami University Regional Campuses - Eli's Sports Bar

2013 Bench Competition Call For Artists!Pyramid Hill 2013 Bench Competition
Call For Artists
The Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park Bench Competition is an important factor in the development of the park. Like any museum, there is a need for seating. We are seeking unique, creatively designed sculptural benches that stimulate the senses while offering a unique and fascinating place to take a break or contemplate the view. Bench materials may vary and must be capable of withstanding Midwestern seasonal changes and weather conditions. Your bench must be designed primarily with aesthetics in mind, but also consider utility. It must comfortably and safely seat one or more persons and must not hold standing water.
We welcome your submissions. Please contact us for an entry form.
