"Sargasso Susan"Â is a Turtle About Town, one of several turtle sculptures raising awareness of Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtles that call the Texas Coast home.
Leroy LeFlore, Artist
“The colors represent the Sargasso Sea and the Flower Gardens in the Gulf of Mexico.”
Galveston Art League, Sponsor
“The turtle promotes those things the members of the Galveston Art League hold dear: nature, wildlife, conservation, local history, and art. It was a good match.”
