Mr Sandman



International sand sculptors have set up camp at Docklands Melbourne. Opening Monday 11 January the artists have literally created their sculpture on site. Visitors will be able to see the artists at work early on during the exhibition as they put the finishing touches on their work.

Workshops are also being held for children aged 4-12 years, and there is not a small brightly coloured plastic bucket in sight. This is an art workshop and parents will not have to pretend to know what the work is or how masterful their offspring’s artistic skills are. After all if an artist makes a mistake with sand they just smooth it down and start again.

Visitors need to know that as impressive as the sculpture is, there is only one piece. Parents looking for something to entertain their children in the last days of school holidays will need to think of other activities if they want to fill in a whole day. Luckily there are lots of things to see and do at Docklands in the CBD and along Southbank.
