Follow on Google News | Cat Care Society in Denver Celebrates 30th Anniversary With Tails of the Painted Cats Art ProjectTails of the Painted Cats, the 30th Anniversary Art Event Fundraiser for the shelter cats at the Cat Care Society (CCS), are now on display at Santa Fe Art District Galleries through April 30.
By: Maggie Chamberlin Holben, APR "Some of our Painted Cats are standing, and some are sitting, but they are all unique, original decorator pieces. Many organizations across the country have done various 'critter' art projects over the years with great success, so we decided this would be the perfect 30th Anniversary Fundraising Event to benefit our shelter cats here in Denver," Shiffer-Krieger explains.
