Lynden Cline's “Several months before you were born, I married a man who wasn’t your father” was fabricated in bronze and installed permanently in the Water Garden section of this 35-acre sculpture park.

Opening in 1992, Grounds for Sculpture provides the public with a tranquil setting and engaging sculpture. The organization's mission is to promote an understanding of and appreciation for contemporary sculpture by organizing exhibitions, publishing catalogues, and offering a variety of educational programs and special community events. Indoor exhibitions of emerging and well-known artists are shown throughout the year in two expansive, glass-walled buildings that were once exhibit halls for the New Jersey State Fair. Over 240 contemporary sculptures, from monumental to smaller scale, can be found on the beautifully landscaped grounds. Home to several families of peacocks, Grounds for Sculpture also offers gardens, fountains and ponds,  a full restaurant, a cafe, and a museum and gift shop.
