Welcome to Stone Quarry Art Park!
We are so glad you are here.
Stone Quarry Art Park is a not-for-profit organization. Stone Quarry was founded in 1991 by Dorothy and Robert Riester for the public experience and exploration of art and land.
Arriving
Stone Quarry has a pay-what-you-want admission policy. The suggested donation is $5/person. Contributions of any size are sincerely appreciated. Whether you give a little or a lot, we welcome you! There is a box at the entrance of the Park (near the stone wall) for cash donations as well as a QR code to contribute online. You can also make a donation by clicking here.
Members of Stone Quarry help us keep the Park open to the public. Learn more about our membership options here.
There are red boxes that hold maps and information, located at the stone wall entrance, and at the top of the hill by the a-frame building.
Stone Quarry Art Park is a carry-in/carry-out facility.
There are no trash receptacles on site. This includes dog waste.
Hours
Stone Quarry's grounds are generously opened to the public every day of the year, from dawn until dusk.

Dogs are welcome, please pick up after them. DOGS MUST BE LEASHED.
Restroom facilities
We offer two restrooms with composting toilets for the convenience of our visitors. These restrooms are located at the top of the hill. There is running water in the restrooms for hand washing, the water in these facilities is not for drinking.
*Please note that the water to the restroom is turned off for the winter on Nov.1st. The toilets are still available with hand sanitizer pumps located both inside and outside of the restroom.
Trails
There is a gravel .25 mile trail that circles the top of the hill. There is also a gravel trail that leads into the Secret Garden. All other trails are grass, soil, boards, or wood chips. Trails are marked by a white diamond. The North Country Trail, maintained by the North Country Trail System, is marked with blue trail markers. Trails can be muddy and wet, especially after big rain events and in the spring.
Tours and large groups
Please let us know if you are planning to bring a large group to visit Stone Quarry Art Park. Advance notice allows us to plan accordingly.
For schools, community organizations, and other large groups, we are pleased to offer artist-led art experiences that engage art-making and the outdoors. Please email us at office@stonequarryhillartpark.org or call (315) 655-3196 for more information.
Food
We welcome outdoor dining and there are many wonderful places in Cazenovia to pick up food on your way to Stone Quarry. Open flames are prohibited but propane camp stoves are allowed. There are no grills on site. There are tables at the top of the hill and in the Secret Garden. There is a small pavilion available in the Secret Garden. We encourage you to bring your own chairs and blankets.
Additional information
- It can be windy at the top of the hill. Due to its higher elevation, the Art Park is often cooler than the surrounding area, we recommend dressing in layers.
- Snowshoeing and XC skiing are encouraged on our trails during the winter. At this time we do not groom the trails.
- Please do not climb on the sculptures!
- NO HUNTING allowed on Art Park grounds.
