"The famous Dancing Pigs are located outside Peet's Coffee in The Marketplace shopping center. They were designed by Davis artist Donna Billick. The inspiration for the piece, says Billick, comes from the following nursery rhyme:
To market, to market, to buy a fat pig,
Home again, home again, dancing a jig;
To market, to market, to buy a fat hog;
Home again, home again, jiggety-jog;
To market, to market, to buy a plum bun,
Home again, home again, market is done." (
