Turtle lovers of all ages have the opportunity to see several colorful Kemp’s Ridley sea turtle statues that have popped up around the island since 2019. Turtles About Town is a community art project that highlights the City of Galveston and conservation efforts to protect sea turtles on the upper Texas coast. Businesses and organizations graciously sponsored the turtles while local artists were commissioned to give each one its own personality and meaning that is representative of Galveston.
