Sculpture by the Sea will be returning to Cottesloe Beach from Friday, 5 March 2021 to Monday, 22 March 2021 for its 17th annual art exhibition. Sculpture by the Sea is Australia's largest outdoor art exhibition and one of the world's largest free public events. It got its start at Bondi Beach in 1997 showcasing art from local and international artists. The first Cottesloe event was held in 2005 and has been an annual event ever since. Sculpture by the Sea is an incredibly popular event in Cottesloe that regularly draws huge crowds.
