Do you like the zoo?
Do you like to paint?
Do you like to paint at the zoo?
Well you're in luck because there is a Bridgeton Park and Zoo Paint Party scheduled for Saturday at the museum multipurpose room at 7 Burt St.
An instructor will provide step-by-step instructions during the painting process. The artist will end up with a 16-by-20 acrylic painting to bring home.
It costs $35 to participate and refreshments are included. The event is sponsored by the All Sports Museum. Call 856-453-1675 to reserve a seat or for more information.

It's looking like its getting closer to reality.

Reminder, I am accepting admission for "My kind of town" taglines at the end of this column.
Entries can be sent to BEN@njadvancemedia.com.
And I'm totally not doing this because I'm lost the creativity to think of a new one each time.
Nope, not that at all.
