Creative Cans In The Sand Cocoa Beach Artist Form

Bobby and Nikki Freeman

Our beaches in Brevard are beautiful, and “Creative Cans In the Sand” is determined to keep them that way. Hundreds of thousands visit our beaches regularly, unfortunately some of them leave more than their footprints behind. “It’s just amazing that a little post on Facebook about a painted beach trash can has taken off like a rocket, and now turned into a huge community event,” said co-founder and RE/MAX Elite Realtor Bobby Freeman.

The Creative Cans In the Sand initiative was organized this summer by Freeman and his wife Nikki, and the program is being endorsed and embraced by many volunteers, local and famous artists, the media and businesses – and the City of Cocoa Beach has expressed their intent to help out in any way possible.

“This is a great community project we can get everybody behind,” said Ben Malik Cocoa Beach City Commissioner. 

“Our beach is our greatest resource and we must preserve and maintain it for the benefit of all our residents and visitors. This will be a great project for the entire community to get involved in to raise awareness to please keep our beaches clean.”

“Kids, art and clean beaches – what a great concept,” said Tony Sasso of Keep Brevard Beautiful.

“Anything that involves kids, art and beautification I think is a great idea. Keep Brevard Beautiful is definitely behind this great effort.”

The Creative Cans In the Sand mission is to help encourage beach-goers to dispose of their trash responsibility, and with the hopes that the more noticeable artistically painted cans will result in a cleaner, more litter-free beach.

EACH ARTIST WILL BE FEATURED ON SPACECOASTDAILY.COM, SAVINGS SAFARI, SPACE COAST MEDICINE & ACTIVE LIVING MAGAZINES
