In 1995, David Handley, founder of Sculpture by the Sea, was living in [[Prague]]. He visited an outdoor [[sculpture park]] in [[Klatovy]], northern [[Bohemia]]. He was inspired to do something similar in Australia. On his return to Sydney in 1996, His friends suggested the Bondi to Tamarama coastal walk as a suitable location. At first, he planned on having paintings as well as sculptures, naming this exhibition "Art by the Sea" but dropped the idea as the weather can be unpredictable on the coast. This is how Sculpture by the Sea came into being.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://sculpturebythesea.com/about/history/|title=History - Sculpture by the Sea|last=picketstudio.com|website=Sculpture by the Sea|language=en-US|access-date=3 March 2016}}</ref> |
