Come bid on Paintbug Pet Portrait & Sip gift certificates (one for $60, one for $75) and support a good cause 🐾 💚

If you’d like to support a wonderful group and have fun at the same time time make plans to attend Redwood Pals Rescue 2nd annual Barks & Brews this Saturday, July 18th! It is a dog-friendly brew festival featuring a variety of craft beer from the Humboldt Homebrewers. You’ll be able to enjoy unlimited tastes in the indoor/outdoor event space with your canine companions, as well as live music, food vendors, raffles, and you can meet some adoptable dogs from the shelter. We hope to see you there!

Thank you Paskenta Mad River Brewery and Tap Room for hosting today and thank you to our fabulous group of painters! For the first time the cat portraits outnumbered the dog portraits 🐾 and that might be why most students didn't finish in the three hour class but we still had fun. Tabbies are hard y'all. So. Many. Stripes. 🐯
