"The William King Museum of Art, located in Abingdon, Virginia, is thrilled to announce Unleashing the Wolf, its inaugural triennial outdoor sculpture exhibition. Six custom works will be selected by two jurors to be displayed on the museum's campus for a period of five years. Abingdon, often referred to as ""Wolf Hills,"" is steeped in wolf folklore, which serves as the inspiration for the exhibition's theme. All entries must align with the theme of Unleashing the Wolf.

Each selected artwork will be placed on an 8’x8’ designated concrete pad on the museum grounds. Sculptures must be free-standing and durable, capable of withstanding fluctuating temperatures and outdoor elements, as they will be featured in a long-term public display. Sculptures will be on loan for a period of 5 years, beginning on May 1, 2026 and ending on May 1, 2029"
