The Valley Zoo Development Society
The City’s Wildest Art Gallery On Thursday, September 13th, 2008, Edmonton’s Valley Zoo Development Society presented “Art in the Wild“.
It was a great success! That evening, the zoo became the city’s wildest art gallery with local and international artists displaying and selling their works.
In addition to works of art from 20+ artists, Lucy the Zoo’s Asian elephant demonstrated her love for art by creating a unique canvas with local artist Tim Rechner.
