Top artists will show their works at a special exhibition entitled ENDANGERED to raise funds for The Center for Great Apes, a non-profit sanctuary that rescues and protects chimpanzees and orangutans. The exhibition will take place from 11 am until 11pm daily, December 5-9, 2012 at the Miami Club Rum Distillery in the Wynwood art district in Miami, Florida.

During the exhibit special events will occur nightly starting at 7pm. On December 7 fashions inspired by endangered species will be modeled. These designs commissioned by the Gabby Wild Foundation (gabbywild.com/animals.php) include works by students and designers such as Jay McCarroll and Seth Aaron Henderson, winners of Lifetime’s hit reality show “Project Runway”. A donation of $20 per guest at the entrance provides guests with one complimentary cocktail and an event poster.
