Nutcracker Ballet - Peacocks on Parade - Dalton, GA

Nutcracker Ballet - Peacocks on Parade - Dalton, GA

In 2012, the town of Dalton, GA had multiple ornamented fiberglass peacocks adorning the downtown streets. Each peacock was sponsored by local businesses and individuals and was then decorated by local artists who incorporated their own themes. Highway US41 used to be called Peacock Alley after the tufting techniques that led to the local prominence of bedspreads and then carpets.

This peacock is named 'Celebrating 20 years of the Nutcracker' by artist Paula Plott Gregg.
