Naturally Artful

THE CITY OF SCULPTURE

Big, bronze and bold, you’ll find the legacy of Clarence Shaler and his love of art on display in natural settings around the community. Shaler’s outdoor art collection has earned Waupun the designation of “City of Sculpture”. Plan to grab a photo at the world-renowned “End of the Trail” sculpture by James Earle Fraser during your visit and participate in a walking or auto tour around the city to view the full gallery. On event weekends, you may be able to catch a trolley tour to visit the sculptures.

GROWING FINE ARTS COMMUNITY

Supporting local art and artists of yesterday, today and tomorrow, Waupun Fine Arts and Waupun Community Players provide opportunity for entertainment and outlets for creative expression throughout the year. Each Thursday in July, enjoy Concerts in the Park and don’t miss a stop by the Waupun Fine Arts Gallery, located on the second floor of the Waupun Public Library, for sponsored artist receptions and discussions. If theatre is your interest, Waupun Community Players produces an annual production at the Historic City Hall Auditorium that you’ll not want to miss.

WE'RE PROUD OF WHERE WE COME FROM

If you treasure history and art, you’ll want to visit the Carnegie Museum – operated by the Waupun Historical Society. The museum is open the first and third Sunday of each month from 1:30 to 4:00 p.m.
