For years the hippopotamus has laid dormant under a bed of warm peat moss, sulking and yearning for the gaze of hungry pedestrian eyes on his slick, glistening gray dermis.

On Sunday, September 25th, you can witness a true miracle of nature as this reclusive gray beast emerges from its disgusting, self-made cocoon and into the modern world for the sole purpose of fiddling with the knobs and switches of outdated technology for your entertainment.

Watch hippos fumble, gyrate, panic, and clap their way into your heart in this unparalleled display of awkward showmanship.
Come see for yourself why they are featured on the front page of the Downtown Art Walk website and hailed by many as "the greatest advancement in science and chemistry since the invention of the modern dog."

Hippo Hotel is the brain child of Derek Doublin and Vanessa Bonet and performed in conjunction with the amazing and brilliant gallery show: "Tiny World: Organic Machine" featuring artists Kasey McMahon and Jason Hadley.
Look at Hippos. Look at art. Drink some milk.
