Friday night at the ENDANGERED: Art For Apes exhibition was an opportunity to experience the fabulous fashions inspired by 12 endangered species and presented by the Gabby Wild Foundation. Our volunteer models did an amazing job of showing these fashions off and highlighting the plight of these 12 endangered species. Music was provided by DJ Blondie and guests enjoyed signature cocktails by Miami Club Rum.
