Desert Christ Park, Sculpture garden in Yucca Valley, California, United States.

Desert Christ Park spans 3.5 acres and contains 40 white concrete sculptures depicting biblical scenes in an open-air setting against the desert landscape.

Reverend Eddie Garver established the park in 1951 after acquiring five acres from the U.S. Government, creating a space dedicated to religious art.

The park features works by sculptor Antone Martin, including the prominent Last Supper facade where visitors can stand near the figures.

Located at 56200 Sunnyslope Drive, the park remains open during daylight hours with free admission, though donations support its maintenance.

The sculptures maintain their stark white appearance against the desert background, creating strong visual contrasts in different light conditions throughout the day.
