Proceeds from artwork sales will go to "Whats Up Dog L.A." This 100% volunteer run dog rescue works to place destitute animals from high kill shelters into forever homes.
So, help out your fuzzy friends and reward yourselves with a one-of-a-kind original piece of artwork! And if you're in the Los Angeles area, you're welcome to come to the reception! RSVP on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/events/476599995724815/
In order be able to host the charity sale, Press Paws is asking for contributions. They hope to raise $3,000 in contributions, which will go into printing costs for posters and flyers, refreshments for attendees at the art show, a photo booth and game demo stations to keep people entertained at the show. You can contribute here.
Each of the 40 participating artists will be creating original artwork of video-game animals. Our Geek Girl, Leen Isabel, will be one featured artist.
