Why Chickens?

Many public art exhibits around the country have successfully promoted local artists and raised money for nonprofits while also enhancing tourism. We wanted to give our exhibit a unique Marietta flavor and keep it fun. The famous Big Chicken has been a landmark in our community since the 1960's and today is recognized as a local icon and navigational beacon. The lil' chickens won't help you with directions, but you'll never look at chickens the same way.

How Can I Get Involved?

Sponsorships:
The lil' chickens of marietta is actively seeking sponsorships for chickens. Sponsorships are available to individuals, groups and businesses. Sponsors will be recognized by a plaque attached to the sculpture and through a series of promotions. Sponsoring a chicken will also allow sponsors to donate money to the nonprofit of their choice.

Artists:
Artists interested in this project have submitted artwork proposals which are featured on this site. When an artist's proposal is selected by a sponsor, that artist will then receive a blank chicken to transform.

Volunteers: All nonprofit organizations rely on volunteers to be successful. We have many opportunities for volunteers to get involved including sales, promotions/events and chicken maintenance. For more information on becoming a volunteer, click here.

The lil' chickens of marietta. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Our purpose is to promote local artists and their work, and through that process to raise funds for local nonprofit organizations.
