    The International Sand Sculpting Festival on Revere Beach got underway Friday morning. The festival runs through Sunday.

    The competition draws sand sculptors from all over the United States and the world, from countries as close as Canada and as far away as Russia.

    The first place prize is $5,000.

    Sculptures include a 20-foot-wide depiction of the U.S.S. Constitution and a 10-foot-tall lighthouse.
