Cama BEACH ART Festival
hosted by Cama Beach Foundation
Saturday, August 12, 2017
1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Cama Beach State Park
Be creative! Have fun at this annual celebration hosted by Cama Beach Foundation.
This isn’t your typical sand castle contest. There’s no sand and no contest, just a chance for folks of all ages to be creative using non-living objects found on the beach (shells, rocks, driftwood) to draw or sculpt a temporary work of art.
To participate, sign up at the registration booth starting at noon. You can work as an individual or as a team of up to four individuals.
This year there'll be FREE face painting from about 12:30 PM until 3:30 PM.
At 3 PM we'll begin the prize drawing. Each individual or team is eligible for a door prize. All participants will receive a coupon for a free ice cream!
Low tide will be at 2:45 PM and sometime after 3 PM the incoming tide will be high enough to begin "modifying" the artwork ... that's really fun to watch.
The Cama BEACH ART Festival is FREE but a Discover Pass is required for parking (purchase a 1-day pass-$10 or an annual Discover Pass-$30 at the Cama Welcome Center). For more info, contact the park at (360) 387-1550 or www.discoverpass.wa.gov.

Cama BEACH ART Festival 2013
This day started cool and a little overcast, but by noon the sun had come out and folks were gathering in front of the Store to get their assigned spot for creating an "art" picture on the beach. Volunteers were seen with cameras in hand to take pictures of the art, the CBF mascot, Bridger, was dressed for the occasion, and everyone headed down to the water's edge to find their favorite items to create their unique art piece. The following pictures were taken of the art creations, to be enjoyed by all, and at afternoon's end, the tides returned to wash the 'pictures' out into the deep. It was a great afternoon of ice cream cones, families working together and lots of smiles. Enjoy.

Cama BEACH ART Festival 2012
Our 1st Annual Cama BEACH ART Festival, held September 15, was a great, sunny, fun time for everyone. Folks of all ages had fun designing art on the shoreline as "teams" (some were families and others, groups of friends) getting together a design using materials found on the beach: seashells, rocks, seaweeds, and shoreline tide berm media. Designed to be done while the tide was lower than the "art" area, many of the groups enjoyed the spirit of the day, watching their designs be taken by the incoming tide. Registered groups received a T-shirt to commemorate the event, and afterwards gathered at the Cama Beach Store decorate additional T-shirts.
