Have you met our newest resident?

"Rhino Wild Ride" by internationally acclaimed artists Gillie & Marc has officially made its home in downtown New Braunfels, and we couldn't be more excited to share it with our guests and community.

What makes this piece so special is that it isn't meant to be viewed from a distance. Gillie & Marc create interactive public art that invites people to engage with it, experience it up close, and become part of the story.

We've already loved seeing people stop to admire it, snap photos, and share the experience with friends and family.

Beyond its playful spirit, Rhino Wild Ride is part of a larger mission to inspire connection, conversation, and awareness around wildlife conservation. It's art with a purpose, and we're honored to be a small part of that story.

If you're exploring downtown New Braunfels, stop by and meet our newest resident. Take a photo, make a memory, and if you share it, don't forget to tag and .
