The Big Pig Gig
The Big Pig Gig was a public art project sponsored by Artworks in celebration of Cincinnati's "porkopolis" heritage.
From the corners of downtown's busiest streets, to the most frequented parks, and even northern Kentucky,
the summer of 2000 found the pigs everywhere!  Let's join in the fun and take a look back...
