Take a tour of Wisconsin Concrete Park, which consists of 230 life-size and larger-than-life concrete sculptures on Smith’s former property in Phillips, Wisconsin. Many depict aspects of northern Wisconsin history, told through representations of people, animals, folktales, and events that impacted the area. Included among the figures are Paul Bunyan, Ben Hur, and Sacajawea. His sculptures have armatures of wood, steel pipe, and wire covered with concrete and embellished with salvaged materials.
The Wisconsin Concrete Park is now a Price County park, managed by the nonprofit Friends of Fred Smith. Located along Highway 13 in Phillips, Wisconsin, the park is open to the public.
