Did Young At Art Peep Show Expose Broward Kids To Porn?

REDBROWARD has obtained a “video tour” of the 2014 “Naughty By Nature” exhibit sponsored by Young At Art (YAA) children’s museum. The exhibit was part of YAA’s program to expose kids to “contemporary art.” The exhibit was curator by Zack Shrago Spechler, the son of YAA executive director Mindy Shrago.

In a previous story, REDBROWARD reported the exhibit featured a “peep show” on the upper floor of the 1310 Gallery in Fort Lauderdale. To get to that floor, guests rode an elevator which was part of the exhibit. The elevator was rechristened as the “precum/postcum elevator,” which is slang for sexual orgasm.

As the video shows, the Peep Show came complete with dogs licking a TV screen while an x-rated video played, naked women pleasuring themselves, a grown man given a bath by a woman.

The video was shot by exhibit co-curator Tabatha Murda.

Most disturbingly, the video shows 2 children riding the elevator to the Peep Show.

Did these kids see any portion of the Peep Show? How many children attended the exhibit? Were parents warned about the content?

Mindy Shrago and YAA Board Chairman David Di Pietro need to answer these questions. As well as questions regarding use of public funds for this not-child friendly exhibit.

Editor’s Note: After the YAA video was posted, we received a message from the owner of a business listed as a sponsor on the video. The credits were added by YAA BLA representatives. The video was edited for length not for content. Here is the comment:

I just saw this video and at the end I saw something that was very disturbing. My company name as a sponsor. I don’t know where that came from as I have not been involved with YAA for something. In fact I resigned as a board member last summer. Please confirm that the credit’s where taken from something that I may have sponsored in the past and not this exhibit.

In no way would my company nor myself ever condone this type of art exhibit in a kids museum.

    Isn’t that the husband of Judge DiPietro? How can we trust someone who keeps such bedfellows?
