Sand Sculpture WA has been creating engaging and unique sand sculptures throughout the state of Western Australia for the past fifteen years. Part product, part participation and part performance, sand carving has it all when it comes to making any event more fulfilling. Each sculpture is custom designed to suit the event it represents distinguishing it from any other event. With the option of teaching opportunities, from toddlers play through to adult master-classes, sand sculpture can also engage and upskill participants.

What people are saying…
We love hearing that people are happy with their sand sculptures and working with Sand Sculpture WA.
“Tim cleverly linked the themes of The Woolstores and Street Arts by creating a piece showcasing a troupe of acrobatic sheep being watched by a sheepdog audience.
Three days of Sand sculpture lessons with Shani ensured shoppers with children were able occupied during the busy school holidays.”
— Woolstores Shopping Centre Manager
“Over two weeks Tim worked closely with students, guest lecturing, mentoring and demonstrating the craft of sculpting and its academic relation to form, construction and texture.
The hand-to-hand work Tim and Shani did with the students throughout the workshopping days was absolutely priceless – the value of the experience they created for our students is something we could never pay for”
— Hillary Lambert, Portfolio Manager, Place Activation, Curtin University
