CowParade

The Cow Parade is a public art exhibit featuring painted, life-size fiberglass cows displayed in various cities around the world. It originated in Switzerland in 1998 and has since been held in over 80 cities globally.

 

The cows are usually decorated by local artists, celebrities or community groups and then displayed in public spaces for several months before being auctioned off to raise funds for charity. The Cow Parade has become one of the largest public art events in the world, attracting millions of visitors and generating millions of dollars for charity.
