Artfully Skirting The Law

Boise Idaho passed an ordinance banning total nudity in public unless it had "serious artistic merit" -- an exemption meant to apply to plays, dance performances and art classes. Any good lawyer immediately notices the loopholes in this law. This skill is called good lawyering.

On what it calls Art Club Nights, the Erotic City strip club charges customers $15 for a sketch pad, pencil, and a chance to see completely naked women dancers. "We have a lot of people drawing some very good pictures," said Erotic City owner Chris Teague, who has posted many of the drawings around the club.

With enough practice I'm sure quite a few people have become good sketch artists.

Teague decided to bill Mondays and Tuesdays as art nights, and let the dancers go without their G-strings and pasties. For all those who think there is nothing to do in Idaho take that! Art and culture has arrived.
