Elephant Parade in Piazza San Giorgio

It is Elephant Parade’s mission to be the world’s largest financial support organization for the Asian elephant, that is threatened with extinction. This year Milan is the city which hosts the outdoor exhibition of more than 80 artistic elephants. Located in various locations around the city, it is a real “treasure hunt” to find them all. Here is one in Piazza San Giorgio, just off of Via Torino.

Starting Tuesday October 11, la Rinascente will dedicate 4 of its shop windows in via San Radegonda in Milano to Elephant Parade. During the next 2 weeks you will be able to admire the elephants of Katy Perry and Antonio Cagianelli as well as a small herd of other statues. Small versions of the eleèhants are alos on sale at La Rinascente to support the Asian elephant cause.
