Pig Festival At The UCR
"Chanchos" or pigs are
giving cows of the "cow
parade" a run for
attention as they have
taken over the art and
colour festival at the
Escuela de Arquitectura
de la Universidad de
Costa Rica, where first
year students showcased
their talents.
The festival is an
annual event in which
paper an carton is used
in preparing the art.
However, this year, it
was decided to use clay
for the creation of the
chanchos, taking
advantage of the
promotion that cow
parade has contributed
to urban art.
Some 120 chancos are on
display, including some
that use the personality
of Bob Marley.
