Nashville's Answer to Gallopalozza
Catfish Out of Water
In 2003, Nashville had 51 Catfish "decorated," then displayed all around Nashville. The City Arts Festival, featuring these decorated fish, was formed to benefit the city's greenways and river parks. Later on, the 7 foot fiberglass catfish (decorated by area artists) were auctioned off and redistributed. I'll be posting more of these as I come across them, since many of them are no longer in there original locations.
