I LOVE SO MUCH THE IDEA CREATED AND HOSTED BY ST ELIZABETH HOSPICE IN IPSWICH.
They came, they went wild and they will still be wild till 2nd of September :)
There are 39 brightly coloured pig sculptures and 30 baby piglets and creating one of the biggest ever mass participation of art trail. What I love the most about the idea is to rice money for the hospice by encouraging people to come to Ipswich and look for the stunning masterpieces spreaded all over the town. Personally with my sons We ticked 18 out of 30 senior pigs, I am telling you something I didn't see such a well organised event for very long time. First Pigs Gone Wild initiative have their own website, you can follow them on Twitter @PigsGonWild16 as well as you can find Pigs Gone Wild on Facebook. The pigs are in Ipswich until 2nd September, as after they will be go under the auction hammer on 22 of September to rise more money for the Hospice. So if yu fancy any of this cute sculptures, feel more than welcome to participate in :)
I will tell you something the idea brought so many children from around the county, and beyond. It is so lovely to see whole families, big and small looking for pigs with special maps, you can buy hats, cups, tops, wrist bands. I must say if more things would be arranged with this passion for details and delivered with such a high standards the world would be such a better place.
I know you probably can't wait to see the art... Lots of children from local school had a pig-tastic time creating their own little pigs...
Local artist were designing the pigs, giving such a great opportunity for promoting homegrown talents.
I will tell you something those pigs are located in such a spot on places, rise smile on people faces. Personally every time I walk through the town and see some of them they do make me smile.. The reason why they idea is such a success because the people behind the project, people participating in the project, social media, local papers. Such a great way to show your county and make people feel better, when you see them...
They are so cute indeed.

Now you understand why the project Pigs Gone Wild is such a popular, in one way pigs are at the moment a little stars of Ipswich and I am going to finish hunting for 13 remaining pigs who are still going wild in the town, so We need to catch them.
So If you are reading the post and you don't have plans for the summer you can come to chase the wild pigs who gone wild.
All the best and be Bless
