🐾 4th Grade Artists Helping Shelter Pets! 🎨
Our talented 4th graders at Coppergate School of the Arts used their creativity to make digital portraits of adoptable cats and dogs from Clay County Animal Services! 🐶🐱 These incredible works of art not only showcase their artistic skills but also help bring awareness to animals in need of loving homes.
Each portrait represents a real pet waiting for their forever family—could one of them be yours? 💙
Check out the available pets and see their wishlist for much-needed supplies here: https://www.claycountygov.com/community/animal-services/adoption
Help us spread the word! Every share brings these pets closer to finding a home. #AdoptDontShop #StudentArtistsForAnimals #CoppergateCares
