We’re so excited to be part of the “Dog Days of Summer: Pets of the Peninsula” exhibit at the Columbia Pacific Heritage Museum! This special exhibit celebrates the animals that have been part of the life on the Peninsula throughout the years and runs through October 31.
Be sure to stop by and see the original artworks created by our very own shelter dogs and cats! Each one-of-a-kind masterpiece was made by one of the special animals in our care.
We are gratefully accepting donations for these original works of art while they last. Every donation directly supports the South Pacific County Humane Society and helps provide food, shelter, medical care, and love to animals waiting for their forever homes.
And don’t miss the fun – click on the video to see our talented shelter artists at work!
Come enjoy the exhibit, take home a truly unique piece of art, and help us keep the tails wagging!
