Sarasotans have long known there is something special about the sand at Siesta Key, whether it's the perfect white color, the cool-to-the-touch feel, or the soft powdery texture. Siesta Key was busy weekend for the Siesta Key Crystal Classic Master Sand Sculpting Competition on Siesta Beach. Master sculptors and local sculptors shape fabulous creations. The featured centerpiece is a 6-foot-tall, 300-ton sand masterpiece with the logos of the event sponsors.
Thursday, November 18 is the kickoff day for the Siesta Key Crystal Classic Master Sand Sculpting Competition that will run through Sunday, Nov. 21.
$18,000 of price money was up for grabs by eleven teams of two sculptors competing. This Siesta Key event includes live music, hands-on sand sculpting classes, and an amateur sand sculpting competition. There was also a vendor village for local businesses.
Mote’s Sea Turtle Conservation and Research Program will receive the proceeds for the sand sculpture competition.
