The Odette Sculpture Park, now called the Windsor Sculpture Park, is an open space in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, that shows 31 large-scale contemporary sculptures by world-renowned artists including Elisabeth Frink.
The park is located on the shores of the Detroit River and is part of the Ambassador and Centennial Parks, between the Ambassador Bridge (Huron Church Road) and the Art Gallery of Windsor (Church Street). The park goes all the way to the Ambassador Bridge.
The Sculpture Park was funded by Mr and Mrs Louis Odette and the P & L Odette Foundation. The park is maintained by the city's Parks and Recreation Department.

Famous quotes containing the words sculpture and/or park:
“Writing is not like painting where you add. It is not what you put on the canvas that the reader sees. Writing is more like a sculpture where you remove, you eliminate in order to make the work visible. Even those pages you remove somehow remain.”
—Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
“Linnæus, setting out for Lapland, surveys his “comb” and “spare shirt,” “leathern breeches” and “gauze cap to keep off gnats,” with as much complacency as Bonaparte a park of artillery for the Russian campaign. The quiet bravery of the man is admirable.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
