Snow Sculptures Spotted Around Arlington

(Updated at 5:15 p.m.) Some crafty Arlingtonians spent part of yesterday’s snow day creating sculptures from the especially wet and moldable snow.

Among the creations spotted around town:

  • A large polar bear in Quincy Park, holding a bottle of Coca-Cola.
  • Two 7-8 foot tall snow creatures across from the Crystal City Marriott. The creatures looked like “a snow wizard and his oversized cat,” we’re told.
  • A shapely figure outside of Bailey’s Pub in Ballston.
  • A boxy, bike-riding snowman, location unknown.
  • A “cute candy-faced Floridian snow-woman in Ballston”
  • An Easter Island head in front of Swanson Middle School in Westover
