Unicorn: benefiting the Saola Working Group
Start: Dec. 4, 2016, midnight
End: Dec. 4, 2016, 3 a.m.
Event at Gristle Tattoo+Art Gallery
Please join us for the opening of UNICORN, an art show benefiting the Saola Working Group! The unicorn is an enduring and powerful symbol, but deep in the Annamite Mountains of Laos and Vietnam there exists a living unicorn: the Saola. This beautiful and elusive creature is hardly known to us and already on the brink of extinction.
"Saola is by far the largest terrestrial animal in the world that has never been seen in the wild by a biologist." (http://www.savethesaola.org/)
It is said that only a pure heart may approach a unicorn and that a touch from its horn has the power to cleanse and heal. We will donate 10% of the proceeds from this show to the Saola Working Group in support of their efforts to understand and preserve this enigmatic creature!
