Barber & Gall Promotions announced they will produce a unique art auction event, Artists for Animals, to benefit two local charities, Alaqua Animal Refuge and Sinfonia Gulf Coast.

The event–benefiting hungry animals and starving artists–will take place this Thursday, November 14th, from 5:30pm until 8:30pm. It will be held at Grayt Grounds of Monet Monet in Grayton Beach.

Throughout the last few months, various local and regional artists were invited to create individual works of art in various mediums, while drawing inspiration from music, animals or both. Nearly 40 fabulous pieces of art will be auctioned off at the Artists for Animals event. Attendees will not only be able to browse and bid on various one-of-a-kind pieces of art, but also sample the fabulous fare at four “chow” stations, all while enjoying the open bar. Members of Sinfonia will also entertain guests with a special performance that evening.

“We are thrilled for this opportunity to work with barber and gall promotions and raise funds to further progress our musical programs,” said Demetrius Fuller, Director of Sinfonia Gulf Coast.

Tickets are $50 and are available online now. Proceeds will benefit both non-profit organizations.

“This unique event will help support Alaqua’s mission of saving animals and second chances,” said Laurie Hood, Founder of Alaqua Animal Refuge. “We are so thrilled for this opportunity and are very excited for the event.”

Other major event sponsors include: Carter & Company, CPA, McNeese Title, Beach Properties of FL, Insurance Zone, Grayt Grounds of Monet Monet, H&M Event Rentals and Décor, Grayton Beach Catering, The Center for Cosmetic & Family Dentistry and Bread & Butter Bakery.
