Sculpture Fields at Montague Park, the region’s premier outdoor museum and nonprofit dedicated to free and accessible public art, is proud to announce the formation of its new Ambassador Society, a dynamic initiative designed to engage younger professionals and emerging community leaders who want to be part of something bold, creative, and impactful.
The Ambassador Society invites young professionals and art enthusiasts to play a vital role in shaping the future of Sculpture Fields. Members are passionate advocates who believe world-class public art should be available to everyone, regardless of background or income.
Through their support and involvement, Ambassadors will help ensure the continued growth, accessibility, and vibrancy of the 33-acre outdoor museum located in Montague Park.
“This new initiative reflects our commitment to cultivating the next generation of cultural leaders,” said Jay Heavilon, Board Chair at Sculpture Fields. “Our Ambassador Society members are not only supporters — they are champions for creativity, accessibility, and the transformative power of public art.”
Ambassador Society members will have opportunities to:
- Connect with fellow young professionals and community leaders
- Attend exclusive events, artist talks, and behind-the-scenes experiences
- Build meaningful relationships while supporting a mission-driven organization
- Advocate for free, accessible public art in the Chattanooga region
- Contribute to innovative programming, exhibitions, and community engagement
Individuals are encouraged to consider joining the Ambassador Society because their annual membership directly fuels:
- The installation and care of internationally recognized sculptures
- Inspiring public art events and cultural programs
- Educational workshops, lectures, and artist talks
- Conservation and maintenance that keep the park beautiful year-round
As a thank-you for their commitment, Ambassador Society members enjoy exclusive benefits, including invitations to members-only gatherings, behind-the-scenes previews, and special recognition at Sculpture Fields celebrations and signature events.
To introduce the community to this exciting new initiative, Sculpture Fields will host a FREE Ambassador Society Kickoff Event on Thursday, February 26, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Oddstory Brewing Co: The Greenhouse at 336 E. MLK Boulevard.
Guests will enjoy complimentary refreshments, networking opportunities, and a brief program at 6:00 p.m. to officially launch the Ambassador Society.

As Sculpture Fields continues to expand its national and international reputation, the Ambassador Society will play an essential role in sustaining the museum’s vision.
