Huskies Night Out - Paint a Pup!
Friday, Feb. 7
Come by yourself or bring a date, a friend, or a group of friends, and enjoy mingling and meeting others at Huskies Night Out!
Join us for this paw-tastic event, where you can paint your furr-ever friend on canvas! Start the evening with a delicious plated dinner at Ellington’s Restaurant, including a complimentary glass of wine or beer. Following dinner, attendees will follow along with local artist, Chelsea McGhee, for a step by step painting workshop. Select between a pre-sketched canvas of Mission, or submit your own pup's photo in advance and have a pre-sketched canvas ready to paint at the event.
If you wish to submit a custom canvas of your pet, it must be emailed to Dana King two weeks prior. Please email a digital photo of your pet (one pet only, please). The photo will be sketched and ready upon your arrival at the event.
The key to making this painting a success is a good, clear, up-close, well-lit photo of your pet. It can't be stressed enough! Please make sure you are able to see the eyes, nose, body and other features clearly.
