Sand Cinema : Leap Sand Castle Contest

This is Leap's 32nd annual sandcastle contest, which will be based on the theme "Sand Cinema" this year. This contest is unique because it brings together professionals from the building industry with local elementary schools to create giant sand sculptures. The process includes everything from mini-classroom sessions to getting the kids in the sand.

Leap's program serves over 30 schools and 7,000 students across the Bay Area with hands-on learning experiences in the arts. Leap is an organization dedicated to arts education in public elementary schools, and includes a wide range of teaching experiences - architecture, painting, sculpture, creative writing, theater, music, and dance. Leap was able to raise over $262,000 during the 2014 sandcastle contest.

 

Date: Saturday October 10th, 2015
Time: From 10:30 am to 4:30 pm (Pacific Standard Time)
