"The vantage point from the Cliff House is typically pretty banal, showing endless volleyball nets and some fog. But the vibe last Saturday was crop circle. A mass of people congregated on the beach with rakes in hand, creating some of the best and most organized sand art I've ever seen. It looked like TikTok-famous 2024 aliens had ditched the cornfields in 2025 to gentrify Ocean Beach - upgrading the coarse, unkempt sand with sprawling geometric patterns."
"As I walked down to the beach I was greeted by a 10-year-old with the presence of an established 40-somethings man - a level of maturity that I have yet to see in the tech bro culture that runs this city. "Can I help you, are you here for the event?" asked KaviAmador. I told the young usher that I was looking for the person in charge and he pointed to his father, Andrés Amador."
Dozens of people gathered on Ocean Beach for a raked sand art event that produced sprawling geometric patterns across the shore. The designs included spirals, peace signs, and sunrays and carried a visible message of "Be Kind." Participants navigated the fragile works with care while recognizing their temporary nature. Andrés Amador coordinated the effort with family assistance, including a confident ten-year-old usher named Kavi Amador. The gathering drew spectators and careful walkers who moved through the pieces, and the incoming tide ultimately washed the sand art away, restoring the beach.
