Elmer's Big Belfast Trail
We were delighted to work with Northern Ireland Hospice to create our first ever Wild in Art trail in Belfast and across Northern Ireland.
Elmer and his friends marched onto the streets of Belfast during summer 2022. The parade of beautifully designed Elmer sculptures were also available to buy in a glittering auction at the end of the project.
After two spectacular farewell weekends at Antrim Castle Gardens and in the city centre, the large sculptures were auctioned to raise £131,000 for Northern Ireland Hospice.
