Monkey Day Art Show

Posted by Miss Cellania in Animal, Arts & Crafts on November 15, 2008 at 11:16 pm

Every year on December 14th we celebrate Monkey Day! One of this year’s events is a charity art auction at the Basement 414 gallery in Lansing, Michigan. Proceeds from the auction will benefit Chimps, Inc., a shelter that takes in unwanted chimpanzees from circuses, zoos, and private homes. Several artists have already donated works, including a chimpanzee from Chimps, Inc. Artists are invited to submit their work for donation. There are other Monkey Day events scheduled around the country; read about them and the history of Monkey Day at the official website. Link to Monkey Day website.
