More Elephants by fishers

More Elephants

A few more of the decorated Herd of Sheffield. Each of the large elephants are sponsored and were decorated by artists.

The central picture shows two elephant calves, members of the Little Herd, which were decorated by local schools. These two are at the entrance to the toy department of John Atkinson's Store.

There are downloadable trail maps and a Herd of Sheffield app encouraging people to get together, explore their town on foot and enjoy sculpture spotting! I think this is a wonderful activity for the school holidays.

For those who want more information about Lizzie the elephant who inspired this project:

Thank you Margo - Katharine had great fun finding these! I haven't been into Sheffield since this display started, but I'm looking forward to getting more shots of these elephants.
