RACINE, Wis. -- An art exhibit all about Peeps -- those spring-time marshmallow confections -- has returned in Racine, Wisconsin."You must not think of them as conventional candy per se. You need to think of them as a method to an end," said Lisa Englander with guest relations and retail operations.It's the 13th annual International Peeps Exhibition,Some of the art might be made out of food, but you don't want to eat it. These Peeps have been painted and glued.
"Every now and then we'll come in and find that a piece of Peep is missing, and we know that somebody has either taken it or chomped on it," Englander said.The art must be made out of Peeps or about Peeps.While it is a competition, it's not really about winning or prizes. It's about making art in a different way.The Peep art is just fun and colorful. One of the favorites is the Peeps roasting what looks like other Peeps over the fire.
The gallery also helps usher in the beginning of spring. There are Peeps camping, Peep animatronics, and even Peeps on a video chat call."So there are many pieces about freedom and rights and recreation, so people are speaking to all aspects of their life here," Englander said.
