The Magic Path winds through 10 acres of manicured trails revealing sculpture sited in the high-desert of Oracle. Long known for its GLOW! nighttime events, the ART RANCH Sculpture Park is now open daily from dawn-to-dusk. Visitors are invited to make a donation online or with cash at the “Donation Station” to take a self-guided stroll through the park, enjoying both the contemporary art and the beauty of nature.
