The Festival of Sand is open to all ages, and we encourage everyone to come and join us for a day of learning, creativity, and FUN AT THE BEACH!!! We were lucky to have John Gowdy back this year to assist in our event. John is a WORLD FAMOUS sand sculpting artist, and he is also an excellent instructor. John gave a demonstration and exhibition in the morning, and later gave instruction in basic sand sculpting techniques.
