Sculpture by the Sea

Paint_SBTS

Sculpture by the Sea is an art exhibition of outdoor sculpture, held at Bondi Beach, Sydney and Cottesloe Beach, Perth, each year. The Bondi exhibition is currently running until 14 November 2010, while the Cottesloe exhibition will commence next year on the 4 March 2011. It is a free event that is very popular with the weekend crowd so be sure to go early or take in the art works with the evening sunset.

Started by David Handley in 1997, with a budget of only $11,000, the first Sculpture by the Sea managed to attracted 25,000 people. Today it is expected that over $1 million of art will be sold at the Bondi exhibition alone.
