Unique Things to Do With Gulf Coast Real Estate: The Texas SandFest began as a small, local sand sculpture competition in 1997, and has grown into the largest competition of its kind in America. An internationally recognized event, it draws renowned, world-class sand sculptors from around the world each year to Port Aransas to square off against one another during the three-day-long, family-friendly festival. Tens of thousands of visitors descend on Port Aransas for the Texas SandFest every year, to bear witness to the creation of some of the most amazing sand sculptures ever. The mission of the event is to raise money for local charities and for scholarships for high school students.
Master sculptors, as well as semi-pros and amateurs, gather for the Texas SandFest to put their creative skills to work on the beach. Visitors to the festival get to enjoy seeing the sand sculptures as they are created and the final masterpieces while also enjoying shows from live music artists and other entertainers, participating in sand sculpting lessons, shopping for arts and crafts, jewelry, clothing, furniture, and festival souvenirs, and more.
The Masters’ Gallery is where the competition sculptures are created during the festival. Master sculptors compete in either the solo or duo division, while amateurs can participate as solo or group competitors. They spend their time creating their sandy masterpieces as passersby watch them in action. Winners of the Texas SandFest competition are announced in two different sessions, with amateur competitors announced on Saturday and semi-pros and masters announced on Sunday. The winners from 2019 hailed from the US and abroad, including sculptors from California, Texas, and Illinois, as well as sculptors from Bulgaria, Canada, Italy, and the Netherlands.
