Kitty Yanko, President of Peoria Humane Society will speak at 7:00.

Besides the sale of art, we will raffle an Animal Lovers basket and collect donations of cat and dog food. Meet the exhibiting artists and view their artwork in three galleries and the 3rd floor classroom.

Art Rescues Animals – Preston Jackson Gallery

Central Illinois Artists unite to offer art for sale to support our furry friends in a group exhibition of and about our love for animals for which we all care. A portion of the sale of each artwork sold will be donated to Peoria Humane Society, dedicated to sheltering, adoption and to the prevention of cruelty to animals.

Grounded: Eric Cooney and Simon Levin – Gallery 3R

Earth born color, pliable materials and water attract East Peorian artist Eric Cooney and Pawnee ceramicist Simon Levin to create art. Conney’s wall reliefs depict sea creatures, inspired by his years living in Florida. Levin’s functional pottery captures the path of flame as it travels on the wind of the kiln.

Ken Clubb: Cat Illustrations – Classroom, 3rd Floor

For many years, freelance commercial artist Ken Clubb created illustrations for Cat Magazine, formerly published by the Journal Star. For the 1st time, these illustrations with similar works are displayed for sale to benefit Peoria Humane Society.

Free admission / donation requested, complimentary snacks & drinks provided.
