Albin Polasek Museum & Sculpture Gardens


Founded in 1961, the Albin Polasek Museum & Sculp­ture Gar­dens holds an art collection focusing primarily on American representational sculpture, with over 200 works by Czech-born American sculp­tor Albin Polasek. The museum offers guided tours of the historic Polasek residence and chapel, an outdoor sculpture garden and a gift shop. The museum is the retire­ment home of 2004 Florida Artists Hall of Fame inductee Albin Polasek, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is one of only 30 members of the National Trust's His­toric Artists' Homes and Studios.

Daily public tours are available at the museum and gardens. Docent led tours of the Historic House and Chapel are included with paid admission to the museum. Times are subject to change. The museum and gardens are available for rent for special occasions like wedding and receptions. Onsite park­ing spaces hold approximately 100 cars with valet parking. If the event requires additional parking space, the valet service will determine whether parking should be on or off-site. All groups requiring parking of 45 or more cars must utilize valet service. All guest cars must be off-site immediately following the event.

Volunteer and sponsorship programs are available through the museum. Volunteer registrations are available online or in person.
