Pet owners: Want our artists to do a portrait of your pet? For a generous $20 donation to the Allegany County Animal Shelter, you will receive a one-of-a-kind portrait of your furry friend! Our Pet Portrait Studio is open to artists of all ages and talents, and portraits will be assigned to volunteer artists at random, providing a wealth of unique pieces from professional to more "abstract" portraits from our little artists in training! We appreciate your kind support of the animal shelter, the library , and our local artists and future artists!
Send a donation and a picture of your pet with your contact information to the Allegany County Animal Shelter BEFORE June 28. Once your pet picture is created, you will be notified to come pick up your pet portrait at the Animal Shelter. Contact the Animal Shelter at info@ashelterofhope.com. Please provide your full name, pet’s name and phone number.
