June 28 – Oct 25
Saturdays (3:30–8pm)
Conceived as a Saturday afternoon cocktail party with art activities, Ghettogloss gallery launched its Bronx Zoo summer series in June at the delightfully dancy downtown La Cita bar. But with each successive Saturday, the hot spot's back patio has been steadily transformed into a bona fide art class, as aspiring students grab sketch pads and draw models sporting lingerie and ape masks. Flavorpill's own Shana Nys Dambrot curates a show at Ghettogloss in mid-November, composed of the finest zoological artworks.
