Save Outdoor Sculpture! (SOS!) is a program committed to the
preservation and celebration of America's outdoor sculptures. SOS! works
to generate appreciation, enthusiasm, and a sense of ownership for
America's largest collection of art and to promote outdoor sculpture as
an education resource.

Nationwide, nearly 7,000 volunteers
collected information about the history and condition of their
communities' public sculpture. Unfortunately, they discovered that much
of America's outdoor sculpture is at risk. More than half of the 32,000
public sculptures documented by SOS! volunteers needed conservation or
maintenance.
