Join Hanover Mayor Maggie Hormel and PAWS for an evening of fine food, music and exciting auctions. An Evening for PAWS opens with a reception with hors d'oeuvres and a silent auction, followed by a live auction with auctioneer Randy Hilker. Auction items include local artwork, an airplane ride, pottery class from the Clay Craftsman Gallery, gift baskets, gift certificates, handmade rugs, handmade furniture and more. Homemade dog biscuits, cat toys and other pet-related items will be available for purchase at the event.

Artist information: Donating artists will receive a business card-size ad in the souvenir event program ($30 value). Artists may create their own ad (black/white) or PAWS will design an ad for you. Artists are encouraged to include marketing collateral (business cards, brochures, etc.) with their donation. PAWS will prominently display these along with the art piece. PAWS will also post a photo of the piece along with artist information on its website prior to the event.

PAWS thanks the Hanover Area Arts Guild and its members for supporting An Evening for PAWS.

To make a donation of artwork or other items for the auction, or for program advertising information, please email Carrie at cg@creativegalleries.com or Mauri at mlovelace@blazenet.net.
