Former roadkill artist Nate Hill, mastermind of the A.D.A.M. and E.V.E. dead animal effigies, is working on a less morbid project: Club Animals. This Saturday, Club Animals, which has nothing to do with Furries, offers a human petting zoo at Brouwerij Lane Beer Store in Greenpoint and free bouncy rides on the Union Square L platform.
