Organized by Gina Beavers

New York City is excited to present “Pig Party.”

A “Pig Party” is defined by WikiAnswers as, “a term, first coined in the movie, Animal House. It is a college party where guys see who can bring the ugliest date. Usually there is some sort of wager on the line and a voting system that happens after the ugly dates have left the party.”

With this idea in mind, New York City presents works from “secret” painting practices, awesomely “bad” undergrad works, awfully amazing things found online, middle school art class drawings, and more!!!

Vote for your favorite pig at the opening!
