2nd Annual Benicia Education Foundation
Parade of Pigs 4 Kids
The Parade of Pigs 4 Kids is back for 2012. This amazing and colorful display is sponsored by Artcentric Studio to help support academic needs for Benicia Unified School District. Artists submitted their designs in October and were chosen based on the creativity, originality, and the benefit they will add to the Parade line up. Twenty uniquely decorated piggy banks are almost complete, and for now they are proudly appearing in the window of Artcentric at 733 1st Street. Please stop by to see the "pig pen"! About February 15th the pigs will take up residence in 20 local Benicia businesses hoping to collect your spare change and dollars. In May they will be auctioned off to the highest bidder, all for a good cause. Bookmarks with their locations will be available at Artcentric after February 15th so you can find them easily around town. Take a picture with a pig and email it to us and we will be sharing photos on our Facebook page.
Please be generous with the pigs, our school children need your support!
A big thank you to our Sponsor Artcentric for their studio time, materials , ceramic glaze and their support and enthousiasim for the project.
