Snoopy in the City Sculpture Trail in London

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Over the last three years, the Fleet Street Quarter on the western edge of the City of London (and just outside the City around Fleet Street) has hosted a sculpture trail featuring twelve sculptures painted by different artists. The sculpture trail is managed in partnership with Wild in Art, and this year's sculpture is Snoopy. The Snoopy sculptures celebrate 75 years of "Peanuts" comic strip by Charles M. Schultz in which the beloved Beagle Snoopy is introduced.

Each of the sculptures is painted by a different artist, and they are all unique. Some of them feature Christmas and festive designs. The sculptures were launched in the middle of November and were on display until the middle of January to give families visiting the area something to do around the festive break. They help bring people into this part of London.
