“Art Gone Wild: Paintings by OKC Zoo Animals”

Oklahoma  City, OK – June 15, 2010 -- Opening & exhibit by Oklahoma City Zoo animals at the "In Your Eye Studio & Gallery" in the Historic Paseo Arts District. Opening reception is Friday, August 6th from 6:00pm-10:00pm. Refreshments provided. Show runs through August 28th. The studio is open Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, 12pm –5pm.

Animal art is beautiful and inspiring, generating a deeper appreciation for animals and nature. Art by zoo animals is part of the ‘animal enrichment' process of creating a stimulating environment that addresses an animal's social, psychological and physical needs. Creating art is safe for the animals; the paints are non-toxic and washable. Some animals use a paint brush while others choose to paint with their paws, claws, tails and scales. Artist animals will include flamingos, grizzly bears, elephants, sea lions, rhinoceros and more.

Funds raised will support the Zoo’s conservation programs and give you an overall warm fuzzy feeling.
