In 1954 an enthusiastic young Maureen Quin began her career as a professional sculptress. Today, the fruits of her passion can be seen in the Quin Sculpture Garden and Gallery, Alexandria, Eastern Cape, South Africa. Working from her studio, in relative isolation, uninhibited by trends, has seen Maureen produce realistic work such as commissions of Nelson Mandela for Rhodes University and the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia, the Rearing Arab Stallion, Dubai, and the Cape Minstrels, Grand West Casino, Cape Town; as well as hugely expressive work like The Hunt Series, a commentary on the ecological degradation perpetuated by man.

The Quin Sculpture Garden & Gallery is open to visitors Monday - Friday from 9 am - 4 30 pm; Saturdays from 9 am - 1 pm and Sundays by prior appointment only.

An entry fee allows for refreshments available at a self service table under the trees and to the sculpture garden and gallery.
