The Albin Polasek Museum & Sculpture Gardens

The Albin Polasek Museum & Sculpture Gardens, founded in 1961, houses a collection focusing on American representational sculpture, prominently featuring Polasek’s creations. The museum is one of only 55 mem­bers listed on the National Trust’s His­toric Artists’ Homes and Studios. We offer guided tours of the historic Polasek residence and chapel, an outdoor sculpture garden, rotating exhibits, and a gift shop.

Join us at the Albin Polasek Museum & Sculpture Gardens to explore the legacy of this distinguished sculptor, witness the historic Capen-Showalter House, and immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage of Winter Park.
