Everything Sand

Sand sculpting is the practice of molding sand into an artistic form using two main ingredients; sand and water.  Most sculptors use their hands, but shovels and buckets are the primary construction tools used in creating sand sculptures. Each year at the American Sand Sculpting Championship there is a theme, and the sculptors must create something that is original and follows the outline of the competition. The sand sculptures can range from small detailed creations to towering castles that are taller than you. Nearly 50,000 attendees pass through the gates over this ten-day festival making it the largest championship in the United States. Last year’s event featured 16 sculptors and this year’s tournament promises to be even bigger and better. Enjoy the activities such as learning how to build a sand castle, live music, and tasty local food.
