ABOUT PHANATIC AROUND TOWN

At the start of the 2010 Phillies season, the Phillies and Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corporation (GPTMC) teamed up to launch the Phanatic Around Town public art project. The tourism and fan initiative features the Phillie Phanatic, one of Philadelphia's favorite icons, and ties into GPTMC's With Love, Philadelphia XOXO™ tourism marketing campaign.

This is the first time a Major League Baseball mascot has been molded into a public art project. All the statues were painted by local artists and on display this summer at local attractions.

The statues are currently being featured in an online phillies.com auction until Sept. 30, with net proceeds benefiting Phillies Charities. For more information, or to bid on a statue, please visit www.phillies.com/phanaticaroundtown or www.visitphilly.com.
