Andres Amador Brings Art on the Shore to Boston Harbor.

Andres Amador, a San Francisco-based artist, will be making spectacular art on the metropolitan Boston region's public beaches from August 7-9 as part of Save the Harbor/Save the Bay's Better Beaches Program.


Andres' artwork can span over 100,000 square feet, achievable only during low tide. His artworks do not last long- within minutes of finishing a piece, and often while still in progress, the returning tide begins resetting the canvas.





Andres has been featured by the BBC, CNN, Discovery Channel, and numerous TV programs and periodicals globally. His artwork has appeared on beaches in the US and internationally, with his primary canvas being the Northern California coastline.

Schedule:
8/7 - Workshop at Carson Beach in South Boston from 9:00  - 12:30
8/8 - Public participation project on Constitution Beach in East Boston from 10:00 - 1: 30
8/9 - Solo project at  "Treasure Beach" on Spectacle Island from 11:00 - 2:30

If you would like to take part in the workshop on Friday or the demonstration at Constitution Beach on Saturday, please send an email to info@savetheharbor.org.
