Annual Sand Sculpture Contest - July 15
July 15, 2023
Experience the enchantment as the sand springs to life at this year’s competition at the Indiana Dunes State Park! The captivating theme is “Games,” granting sculpting groups the freedom to explore beyond sand art. Judging will commence after noon, followed by the award ceremony at 1:00 p.m. Whether you participate in the construction or not, make sure to cast your vote for the “People’s Choice Award” between noon and 1:00 p.m. A team of park volunteers will evaluate sculptures for the funniest, most creative, and most thematic creations across both adult and child categories.
