From the Indianapolis Zoo's website:

Once again, the Indianapolis Zoo will be the site of a unique art experience. Selected artists from around Indiana will be on grounds at the Zoo and White River Gardens on May 2 painting
en plein air
their favorite subjects from the natural world. Artists are free to choose any subject they like, from the beautiful flowers and butterflies in the Gardens to the majestic giraffes and elephants at the Zoo. The public is invited to come and witness the artists at work on grounds!

The finished paintings will be on display in the Schaefer Rotunda at the Gardens from May 29-August 27, then the works will be auctioned off at the Naturally Inspired Paint Out Reception on August 27 with all proceeds benefitting the Zoo. Information on reserving your spot at the Reception will be available later this year. Cost is $10 for Zoo members & guests and $25 for non-members. This event is presented in partnership with The Great Frame Up of Indianapolis.
