Walking through the nature reserve

When the weather permits, you can take a walk on the winding forest path that offers surprising and eye-pleasing views. It is also possible to walk through the nature reserve, which is surrounded by a beautiful fen and wild vegetation. There are of course no statues in this nature reserve, but it is certainly no less worthwhile.

Flowering garden and art during the Summer Exhibition

As soon as spring arrives, the summer exhibition will start at the Sculpture Garden in Gees. In the garden the trees are sprouting and the first bloomers are visible. You will also see many birds building their nests there. Numerous artists then present their most beautiful works of art against this idyllic setting. Statues, but also jewelry, paintings and other surprising objects. The artists come from the Netherlands, Belgium, France and Germany and use all conceivable materials. You can also admire the work of graduated talents of the Classical Academy during the summer exhibition. There is also music in the garden every Wednesday evening.

Autumn exhibition in enchanting colors

As soon as the summer is over and the leaves start to fall from the trees, the autumn exhibition starts at Beelden in Gees. The themes of the exhibition always vary. For example, for the autumn exhibition in 2018, artists who are connected to the ends of the country were chosen. That is to say, far away from the hustle and bustle of the Randstad. All painters come from the Classical Academy during this autumn exhibition, where figuration is central. In addition, ceramists from Limburg will also give substance to the autumn exhibition. You will be shown ceramics in all its facets. From statues to utensils and from jewelry to hard porcelain.
