4th Annual Pop-up Market + Fundraiser at Artspace Hartford on Sunday, December 10
For the past three years, Hartford Artspace Gallery has been the location for a successful pop-up market and fundraiser. This year, the organizers invite you to be a part of the event on Sunday, December 10, from 11am-5pm, to benefit Protectors of Animals.
Protectors of Animals (POA), a 501(c)(3) organization, is a leader in the rescue, rehabilitation and adoption of Connecticut’s abandoned, abused, and homeless animals with a focus on the neediest cats and dogs in Hartford County. POA was an early pioneer in the state by embracing pediatric spay/neuter thus ensuring all POA animals are “fixed” before adoption, fulfilling their mission of reducing overpopulation. Formed in 1975, POA is one of the oldest, continuously operating, no-kill animal welfare organizations in the northeast. Primarily run by volunteers, POA dedicates its time and resources not just to rescue, but also to facilitating foster homes for homeless animals, providing extensive medical care for shelter animals, as much socialization and rehabilitation necessary to ready all of their animals for adoption. To date, POA has rescued and successfully placed more than 14,000 cats and 7,000 dogs. Discover more about Protectors of Animals by visiting www.poainc.org.
Caresse Amenta, Caroline Finnegan, and Robin Kane organized this year’s Art+Soul Hartford with 100% of the proceeds going directly to the Protectors of Animals. The one-day-only event will be held on Sunday, December 10, 2017 at Hartford Artspace Gallery, 555 Asylum Avenue in Hartford, CT, from 11am-5pm. A $5 suggested donation will be collected at the door.
