Art that Helps Create a Better World for Animals.
If you live in the United States, then about half of the people in your neighborhood have a cat or dog… or both! Nothing beats the companionship of a loving pet by your side. There are more than 160 million dogs and cats living with their humans right now, in their own cozy home!
But not all animals…or their caretakers… are as fortunate. Every year, millions of people are heartbroken…finding they have to give up their beloved companions to shelters… due to unexpected financial hardship.
You Can Create a Better World for Animals with Art.
You can feel good about helping to fund efforts that care for these pets… that’s what you do when you buy an art piece from the show. A portion of the gallery’s art sales is donated to this year’s nonprofit recipient, the Coastal Humane Society.
The art in Seaside Art Gallery’s Animals in Art Show is stunning. The show opens February 1st and runs through February 22nd, 2020. You can see this beautiful Animals in Art Show online, and in the gallery.
Melanie Smith, owner of Seaside Art Gallery is an avid animal lover. She brings her passion for art and animals together in this amazing Animals in Art Show. This exclusive exhibit celebrates animals while helping to create a better world for them.
“This is one of my favorite shows… the art is extraordinary and it helps pets and their owners. The show celebrates the beauty of animals through art by wonderful artists,” says Smith. “Everyone participating in the show is helping pets to stay with their owners during financial difficulty by helping them through the Coastal Humane Society.”
You’re invited to a special reception at Seaside Art Gallery on Friday, February 1st, 2020 from 5pm to 7pm. It’s open to the public. Refreshments are served.
Proceeds Benefit the Coastal Humane Society
Hundreds of original works of art are on display portraying animals in all art forms – from canvas and animation art… to jewelry… and sculpture.
A portion of proceeds from the sale of any item featuring an animal in the gallery from February 1st – 22nd, 2020, will be donated to the Coastal Humane Society benefiting animals.
The Coastal Humane Society is an all-volunteer non-profit organization dedicated to ensuring all animals are cared for and no caretaker is forced to give up a pet because of financial hardship. The organization has been helping over 6,000 animals and caretakers in Dare and Currituck counties since 1997.
