The "Party Animals" art exhibition that took place from April to early October of 2002 throughout Washington, D.C., was the largest public art exhibit ever held in the city. The display consisted of 100 elephants and 100 donkeys that had been customized in various whimsical ways by some of the region's artists. The results were entertaining, and many people (us included) went out of our way to see as many of them as we could.
It was sad to see it end -- it was a fun exhibit. But see for yourself:
