Going 'Ape' over this gate at the East Village Vintage Collective

We have two reader-submitted photos from the weekend... showing the new Frank Ape mural on the gate at East Village Vintage Collective on 12th Street between Avenue A and Avenue B...



The new mural went up back on Friday as part of the 100 Gates Project, which provides site-specific artistic collaborations with East Village merchants.

The mural project started on various EV storefronts in late April.

Also yesterday, Steve Ellis started adding some art on the gate at Exit9 Gift Emporium on Avenue A.
