The impressive artwork of Hampton Bays High School student Mackenzie David is now on display as part of a new Hampton Bays Chamber of Commerce community-wide art installation.
The Shell Statue Art Project aims to showcase the Hampton Bays community through the installation of 32”x40” shell statues that are painted by Hampton Bays High School students and community artists. A total of 17 statues will be strategically placed at various locations that bring pride to the hamlet.
David’s painted shell was the first to be unveiled during a ceremony on July 5 at Ponquogue Beach, where it will be permanently installed. It features a surfing theme.
Future shells to be placed around the hamlet will feature a variety of other themes.
