Bear Town Bears
Bears are making tracks all over New Bern, decorated, fiberglass bears that is! Adorned with hats, flags, flowers and other unusual and creative features, you will be delighted with each bears unique design. To coincide with New Berns 300th Anniversary Celebration in 2010, Bear Town Bears, a nonprofit organization, recruited local artists to implement hand-painted designs on life-size standing and walking fiberglass bears for public enjoyment during the entire year. Sponsors for the bears have placed their bears in historic downtown, as well as in outlying areas. The public is invited to enjoy their own "Bear Tracks Hunt" by picking up a free map from the New Bern/Craven County Convention & Visitors Center, the New Bern Chamber of Commerce and other supporting businesses. Children can participate by playing the game by finding hidden features on each bear using clues listed on the map. Track bears all over New Bern while enjoying the beauty of these public art sculptures in 2010!
