Art is everywhere - even in a forest in cottage country in Haliburton, Ontario which I discovered in a recent holiday in the
Haliburton Highlands. The
Haliburton Sculpture Forest is a unique opportunity to view a collection of sculptures by Canadian and International artists as you meander along wooded forest trails within Glebe Park. There are 26 sculptures in total. See
www.haliburtonsculptureforest.ca/ for more details.
