The National showcase of Halloween Art continues its series of showcases this year with a very special contest and art exhibit! The Nineteen Hundred and One Gallery has been serving up some of the finest dark art exhibitions & performances in Chicago! Zombie Pinups is one of HAE associate director Chad Savage's many projects, and we knew it was eminent for a crossover with the Annual Halloween Art Exhibit, and now that time has arrived! Join us the last weekend in May when Halloween Art is in full bloom and the best dressed zombies walk away with the prizes! Guest DJ's, performances and a ghastly great time is in store for those not afraid!

TO COMPETE: Come Dressed to Kill! Retro pinup style is the order of the day, with an undead twist! For inspiration visit the gallery at http://www.zombiepinups.com!

So we had this wacky idea...

What if a thousand zombies raided downtown Chicago? Yeah, that's what we had in mind...

Dress-up and make-up as your favorite undead and come to Chicago's first-ever zombie walk! These things have happened all over the U.S. and Canada, but never in our lovely city. We look to change that..
