Indoor Winner and People's Choice Runner Up 'Lionfish Mobile' by David Hamilton
The event was inspired by Brighton Surf Life Saving Club members after experiencing sculptures at Cottesloe Beach WA, the latter event modeled on the famous Bondi Sculptures by the Sea.
Our vision is to continue to hold a major arts event concluding with the successful annual 7 Brighton Jetty Classic Swim.  The combination of both arts and sport is a unique and successful community event.
Sculptures large and small for outdoor and indoor display will be made from multi media compositions i.e. wood, wire, glass, metals, stone, clay, plastics, cement etc.
While continuing with the exhibition of indoor sculptures, we encourage entry of large outdoor works suitable to be placed in adjacent Bindarra Reserve and along the Sculptures Walk, Esplanade, Brighton beach. 

This Community event was a finalist in the 2012 Ruby Awards in South Australia

The Competition
Entries for the 2014 exhibition will open in June.

Artists are invited to enter their sculpture in what will be both an exhibition and a competition.  A judging panel will award  cash prizes for the following categories:

- Outdoor Sculpture:

- Indoor Sculpture:
- Indoor Runner up:  
- Emerging Artist:
- Environmental Awareness:   
- Young Artist (15-26 years):
- People's Choice:

A commission of 30% from the sale of each sculpture will be retained by the Brighton Surf Life Saving Club.  It is anticipated that submitting artists will be mindful of this when setting a price for their sculpture.
