OAC™ Gallery Raises Money and Awareness for Dog Rescue

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - March 5, 2014 - PRLog -- OAC Gallery, an online gallery that sells original artwork, is auctioning off a large, limited edition Traer Scott photograph to promote pet adoption and raise money for Handsome Dan’s Rescue. OAC Gallery’s Auction for Shelter Dogs will take place online March 5 – 14th here: 32auctions.com/oacgallery.

The photograph to be auctioned off is of Petey, the cover dog from the best-selling book, Shelter Dogs by Traer Scott. All of the proceeds from the auction go directly to Handsome Dan’s Rescue, which helps with the placement and care of all shelter dogs, regardless of breed. Traer Scott has been a long time shelter volunteer and says, “Volunteering on the front lines is definitely not for everyone but I believe everyone does have something, somehow to give.”

Traer Scott is based in Providence, RI and is about to release her fifth photography book, Nocturne: Creatures of the Night from Princeton Architectural Press. Her Natural History series, which was featured in National Geographic, can be seen at oacgallery.com. “Traer’s passion for animal welfare is contagious and this project seemed like a great way for the gallery to get involved,” says Sarah Biondi, owner OAC Gallery.
