The Toronto Zoo is hosting 19+ paint nights that are perfect for animal-lovers. On May 23 and June 27, you'll be able to take an adults-only painting class while sipping cocktails at the zoo. Make sure to invite your friends to join you for a class, as these events are going to be so much fun! The zoo paint nights are perfect for everyone, no matter your artistic skill level. At the evening class, the instructor will teach you how to paint one of the creatures at the zoo, and once you are done you'll be able to take your painting home!

At the start of the class, there is often small animals or birds available for you to meet before you begin painting. http://www.torontozoo.com/ Every paint night at the zoo has a unique theme, that coincides with the Zoo's ‘Saving Species Days’. For May the theme is sea turtles, while in June it is the giraffe as the zoo is celebrating World Giraffe Day. As such in May the class will teach you how to paint a cute sea turtle, and in June a colourful giraffe. At the adults-only paint classes, there will also be special cocktails to enjoy too! Each class has a special cocktail to fit the theme of the painting. For example, in June you'll be able to enjoy a giraffe themed cocktail with your friends while you paint.
