WHERE ART MEETS HEART..AND PAWS!

Paint Your Pet's Portrait For A Paws-itive Cause!

Unleash your inner artist at Old Dominion Humane Society's Barks And Brushes where YOU become the artist! We provide a pre-sketched canvas of your furry (or feathery, or scaly!) pet and all the supplies—no experience needed! Best of all, you'll be painting with paw-sion while supporting rescue dogs!

So Easy It's Paw-some!

No talent required—just a love for animals and a willingness to have some fun while helping raise money for the dogs in our care! Now, before you say, "But I can't even draw a straight line!"—stop right there! Barks And Brushes is NOT about being the next Paw-casso. It's about celebrating your furry (or scaled, or feathered!) best friend in a relaxed, silly, and totally unintimidating environment. Think of it less as a serious art class and more as a party where paint happens to be involved!

So get ready to dip, daub, and maybe even get a little messy for a great cause at Old Dominion Humane Society!
