Closing Reception: October 15, National Pug Day. Pug themed art demonstrations that night!
October is a special month for many reasons: it is the heart of the fall season, it hosts Halloween, but most importantly, October 15 is National Pug Day! Help us celebrate these beloved pets with a pug-themed art show held in the alcove of Overflow Brewery.
The show is free to enter, but we ask that 15% (or, if the artist wishes, more) of the sale be donated to one of the pug rescue organizations in the state of Florida. These are Pug Rescue of Florida (https://pugrescueofflorida.org/) and Compassionate Pug Rescue (https://compassionatepugrescue.com/). These organizations take in pugs, foster and care for them, and provided needed medical attention to surrendered pets.
There are interactive painting demonstration days for Overflow Brewing scheduled for September and October, with an additional pug-themed painting demonstration the evening of Friday, Oct. 15.
