Ponies Del Pueblo
Ponying up for nonprofit groups
Tucson is jumping on the arty animal chuck wagon.
The public art fund-raising project will borrow from cities such as Chicago, Santa Fe and Seattle, which have used cows, horses and pigs to decorate their streets.
The faux ponies will be used to help raise money for the city's nonprofit organizations, said Mary Anne Ingenthron, executive director of the Tucson-Pima Arts Council.
