Overview

Get ready to look up! We were delighted to be working with Edinburgh Zoo to present Giraffe About Town – a large-scale public art trail in Edinburgh in the summer of 2022.

Designed to celebrate Edinburgh’s extraordinary heritage and cultural diversity, the giraffes were displayed for two months in locations across the capital, highlighting iconic spots and hidden gems from Edinburgh Airport to Leith.

There was also a fabulous farewell weekend at Edinburgh Zoo before the giraffe sculptures were auctioned to raise £246,000 to support Edinburgh Zoo’s conservation projects in Scotland and across the world.

The sculptures found new homes across the city, ensuring a fitting legacy for the people and communities of Edinburgh.
