Trinity Communion Church

  • … that Trinity Communion Church in western New York erected a 10 foot (3.0 m) papier-mâché pink elephant on its lawn to increase the church’s visibility in its neighborhood?
  • Source: “‘Now that’s a pink elephant,’ said Jerry Corbett of Webster, who wheeled up to the front lawn of Irondequoit’s Trinity Communion Church Wednesday night, just as pink-spattered painters were wrapping up their “pink-ifying,” if you will, of a pachyderm that has been in residence, in various stages of completeness, for about a month. The purpose of the elephant is really to engage the church family in making the building and themselves more visible to the surrounding community – albeit in a whimsical way…. The about 10-foot-tall elephant has a plywood frame but was also constructed of chicken wire, some cement, papier mache, fabric and glue.” Daily Messenger, https://www.mpnnow.com/story/news/2009/07/10/painted-pink-pachyderm-prompts-party/45576391007/
