Not much slips by this message board, but a friend in South Jersey made me aware today of a special event taking place summer 2005 in Moorestown, New Jersey, the home of one Eldridge Johnson.
>From the website: "Nipper 2005 is a public art project and fund raising event that will place 30+ five foot high fiberglass Nipper dog statues, decorated by artists, on the streets of Moorestown next summer from early June to early September. This special event will culminate with an auction of the dogs in October 2005. We are taking a page from the very successful Cows on Parade staged in Chicago in 1999 and replicated around the country with donkeys and elephants in Washington DC, painted ponies in New Mexico, bears and lighthouses in Maine and many more." www.nipper2005.org Greg Caringi
