Oor Wullie\u2019s Bucket Trail is a major public arts event that will see the streets of Dundee and beyond come to life with a spectacle of colour of 50 giant Oor Wullie sculptures in summer 2016. The project, a collaboration between\u00a0<\/b>The ARCHIE Foundation<\/a>, DC Thomson<\/a> and Wild in Art<\/a> will capture the hearts and minds of the public and encourage us all to become \u2018tourists in our own City\u2019 and attract visitors from all over. The Oor Wullie sculptures will be beautifully decorated by local and national artists as well as household names from the worlds of film, music, art, animation and fashion. From small local companies to national corporations, a whole host of businesses and individuals will have the unique opportunity to sponsor a sculpture that will then be on show for 10 weeks before taking the\u00a0sculptures to auction to help raise funds for The ARCHIE Foundation\u2019s Tayside Appeal<\/a> to create a twin theatre suite for the children\u2019s hospital. \u00a0Read more about the trail at\u00a0Oor Wullie Bucket Trail<\/a><\/p>\n
