Duluth’s art festival icon missing

Duluth, in the midst of a weeklong event called ‘Barefoot in the City,’ has lost its mascot. As part of the weeklong celebration of the arts, Dee Dee the chicken was designed to “cluck” around to different locations in Duluth each day.

On Tuesday, Duluth discovered Dee Dee is missing. The 5 and a half-foot tall, 100 lb. stuffed chicken wearing purple shoes and necklace, along with striped stockings, was last seen on McClure Bridge Road at the roundabout.

If spotted, contact City Hall at 770-476-3434.
