🎨 CALLING ALL ARTISTS! Let’s get creative for a cause! 🐾

Our hearts are officially going to the dogs... and cats! We are recruiting local creators of all kinds to donate an animal-themed piece for our upcoming Annie art auction.

Whether you paint, sculpt, knit, or woodwork, we want YOUR unique talent on display! Every single piece contributed directly helps River Valley Animal Rescue continue saving lives—just like they saved Bento, the amazing pup playing Sandy in our show! 🐶❤️

Your creativity has the power to make a massive difference for rescue animals in our community. Don't sit on the sidelines—join the fun, showcase your passion, and help us pack the auction gallery!

Bonus! You get a ticket to see Annie for your contribution! 🎟️

✨ Ready to jump in and participate?
Email Shauntia Mettlin at [email protected] to sign up today! Let's create something beautiful together! 🙌🎨
