                The Adelaide Airport Brighton Jetty Classic Sculptures Exhibition will be open
                 for 10 days in 2012, from Wednesday January 25th and culminating with the 7 Brighton Jetty Classic Community Event on Sunday 5th February 2012 with the exhibition closing at 1pm.

                The event was inspired by Brighton Surf Life Saving 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 successful exhibition of indoor sculptures, we have substantially increased the prize money for large outdoor sculptures including a Sculptures Walk along the Esplanade at Brighton beach.
