Hogpen Hill Farms: ET's Landscape Sculpture Park

Hogpen Hill Farms is a 234-acre tree farm + landscape sculpture park with 100 ET artworks in Litchfield County in northwest Connecticut.

The sculpture park was open to the public on Saturdays and Sundays September 23 through October 29, 2023. It is now closed for 2023. Click here for general information. (Please do not come on days when the park is closed. There is no access, the gates are closed.)

"It is wild, whimsical, grand and incredibly beautiful, with sculptures ranging from stainless steel surfaces reflecting every nuance of light, to lacy stone walls and silent boulder megaliths."   Michele McDonald, Boston Globe

"North America's best sculpture park: Edward Tufte's Hogpen Hill Farms"   Philip Greenspun

"Each of the works transforms the landscape, see these amazing artworks up close."   Atlas Obscura

How to make meetings smarter and shorter - teaching, very large meetings, medical appointments, hearings, small groups making decisions. How to improve both the content and credibility of presentations.

323,000 people from 1994 to 2020 attended continuously changing live versions of the ET course Presenting Data and Information. But now we have an online course video. This course can be viewed anytime, and students receive all 5 ET books in advance by mail - for study hall and reading during the course. The online video is closely keyed to the books, with short reading throughout the course.

Edward Tufte teaches the entire course.

Each student receives all five ET books on information design:
