Thank you to all that came out to help make the opening reception for ‘A Cry For Help’ such a huge success.
We had well over 500 people attend the opening night reception and another couple hundred over the weekend.

In the coming days we’ll be posting a special photo set on our Flickr featuring pictures of many of the participating artist’s pets – we’ll post a head’s up here once that’s live on Flickr.
This special exhibition runs through February 5th, 2010 – for full details on the show please click here: http://thinkspacegallery.com/2010/01/index.php
20% of all proceeds will be donated to Born Free USA – http://www.bornfreeusa.org/
Please note:
*We will continue to accept donations of old blankets throughout the month to give to shelters so dogs don’t have to sleep on cold concrete floors as well as old/new pet beds, towels, comforters, treats, toys, leashes, collars and carriers/crates for both dogs and cats (please bring all you can this month and we’ll be collecting and passing on at end of the show).
