"Melvin Moody" is a Turtle About Town, one of several turtle sculptures raising awareness of Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtles that call the Texas Coast home.

“Melvin Moody represents not only Galveston and the Texas Gulf Coast culture we all love, he also represents our children and their creativity, imagination, and enthusiasm for learning new things. He has dinosaurs, astronauts, butterflies, castles, unicorns, rocket ships, and of course our Moody Kite painted on his shell. We love having Melvin here at school with all his unique art on display and love having families and children stop to find something new on him each time they visit.”
