Twenty two critters were created and placed at various location in Downtown Apex, NC. On benches, curbs, on top of newspaper boxes, on brick wall and even tied to poles and street signs.
Each critter held a sign that read:
Help! I'm Lost!
Thank goodness you found me! Please take me back to the Halle Cultural Arts Center, 237 North Salem Street in downtown Apex. I miss my brothers and sisters!
Back at the Halle Cultural Arts Center we place a Lost & Found box with the hopes that some of the critters might be found and returned to the gallery, where it just so happened, we were exhibiting.
To date, 18 of the original 22 have been returned. So keep looking :)
The Lost Critter Project: 500 Critters
The town enjoyed the Lost Critter and Found Street Art project so much that we are currently in talks for sponsorship with the Apex Business Association to create another; larger, public arts project this summer. Read more about The Lost Critter Project: 500 Critters
