  • St. Augustine Beach Sculpture Garden
    St. Augustine Beach Sculpture Garden
    For fourteen years, St. Augustine artist and musician Thomas Glover White worked toward his vision of a building community Sculpture Garden. In 2009, the St. Augustine Beach City Commission set aside land for the permanent installation of the St. Augustine Sculpture Garden and committed to the lighting and long-term maintenance of the monuments and grounds. Installation began in 2010, and the Sculpture Garden celebrated its grand unveiling in June 2011. It was a remarkable gift to the community, an artistic treasure to be enjoyed by generations to come, and an amazing legacy to the life and work of Thomas Glover White. The St. Augustine Sculpture Garden is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the cultural values of the Community of St. Augustine Beach and its surroundings.  Come join us to enjoy and share the St. Augustine Sculpture Garden at Lakeside Park, adjacent to the St. Augustine Beach Police Department and City Hall Building, on A1A S. The Sculpture Garden is a valuable gift to the Community and the sculptures have been appraised over three-quarters of a million dollars. The Park is a  cultural landmark for this historic area, and it is free to the public to visit and admire.  
  • St. Augustine First World War Memorial
    St. Augustine First World War Memorial
    When coming into the historic downtown district of St. Augustine from the iconic Bridge of Lions, visitors will see an American flag flying high just to the right. Located just across the way from the American Legion, this memorial honors the young men of the city who served in the First World War from 1917-1918. The memorial flag pole base was designed by Charles Adrian Pillars, the city’s foremost sculptor, and some regard this as his most significant work. It was donated to the city in 1923 by Dr. Andrew Anderson, a local philanthropist who has donated several works throughout the city like a fountain at the Governor’s House and the statue of Juan Ponce de Leon nearby. Six panels at the base of the flag outline significant dates and portraits of important people to the city’s history like Ponce de Leon, Pedro Menendez, and Henry Flagler.
  • St. Augustine Foot Soldiers Monument
    St. Augustine Foot Soldiers Monument
    Located near the southeast corner of the plaza is the St. Augustine Foot Soldiers Monument that honors the men and women who engaged in various forms of peaceful protest to advance civil rights contributing to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The monument, commissioned by the St. Augustine Foot Soldiers Remembrance Project, Inc. (the "Project"), was installed and unveiled in May 2011. The 675 lb bronze monument – designed by sculptor Brian R. Owens of Deltona, Florida – features four life-size portraits of anonymous foot soldiers placed shoulder to shoulder, in front of a relief illustrating a protest in the same Plaza where the monument is now installed. The portraits represent an approximate demographic profile of the foot soldiers: A Caucasian college student, and three African Americans: A male in his thirties, a female in her sixties, and a 16-year-old female. The 7500 lb tapered cast-stone base – designed by Enzo Torcoletti of St. Augustine – includes Coquina, a naturally occurring material used in the construction of many historic structures in St. Augustine. A historic plaque is displayed on the front of the base and a donor-recognition plaque is on the back.
  • St. Augustine WWII Monument
    St. Augustine WWII Monument
    This memorial is located at the northeast corner of the Plaza de la Constitución just next to the old Public Market facing the Bridge of Lions. The St. Augustine Pilot Club presented the monument in 1946 to memorialize the citizens of St. Johns County who gave their lives during World War II. Later, bronze plaques were added to the six-foot square, stucco-finished masonry shaft to include those from St. Johns County who died in Korea and Vietnam.
