Beverly Cleary Sculpture Garden at Grant Park

As a huge Beverly Cleary fan growing up, this was super cool to fans and share with my children.

Kids loved this little section of Grant Park and the playground right next to it. Fountains were on and they enjoyed splashing and cooling off on a 90+ degree day in Portland.

Nice meaningful statuary, great work.

Watch your back in this area the same as all of portland

One of the fountains was broken but but it was a cool sculpture area. Smaller than I anticipated. But a cool stop only if you’re in the area.

It made me want to splash around and be playful. My dog sniffed the rear of the dog statue!

My kids loved the sculpture garden, particularly after recently reading Henry Huggins!

Beverly Cleary is one of the more famous childrens book writers from Portland. I loved her books as a child, and love these statues dedicated to her characters and books.

A delightful place to take the grandchildren especially if they are under the age of 5.
