There is something special to see in our own backyard! The renowned sculpture park at PepsiCo’s world headquarters in Purchase, NY has reopened after the facility underwent a three-year makeover. Before its closure at the end of 2012, the sculpture garden at the Anderson Hill Road property attracted more than 100,000 visitors annually on a drop-in basis.
“Donald M. Kendall, former chairman of the board and CEO, conceived the gardens which bear his name. He imagined an atmosphere of stability and creativity. The sculpture collection was started in 1965 and consists of works by major twentieth century artists. Russell Page, the internationally famous garden designer, cultivated the corporate grounds into an arboretum transforming the gardens into a work of art. The sculptures and gardens exist in harmony on a carefully maintained landscape.”
PepsiCo is proud to share their corporate grounds with our community. Individuals are welcome to enjoy the gardens and sculptures on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 am to 4 pm. For more information including a site map, please visit http://www.pepsico.com/sculpture-gardens
