A new Guinness World Record for the most contributions to a painting-by-numbers has been set, thanks to the efforts of over 14,000 visitors.
The collaborative artwork, spanning 21 boards and depicting 200 different animals, was created at both London Zoo and Whipsnade Zoo. This significant achievement marks the 200th anniversary of the Zoological Society of London (ZSL).
Victoria Sage, ZSL events manager, shared her enthusiasm for breaking the record. She highlighted how the project perfectly embodies ZSL's core mission of fostering connections between people and wildlife.
The impressive completed artwork will be exhibited at London Zoo for visitors to admire. Subsequently, it will be relocated to Whipsnade Zoo later this year.
