Students in Cricket Maiden's art class at Forest Park Academy have recently been painting pet portraits for a cause!

 

Students have painted pictures of animals for adoption at Angels of Assisi and Franklin County Humane Society Planned Pethood & Adoption Center to help raise awareness of pets in need of loving homes. Many students are also donating a copy or original of their artwork to the shelters to raise funds for the adoption and/or care of the animals. Some of the animals have been in the shelter anywhere between 8 months to almost two years, with one dog being there for almost 7 years.

 

We are so proud of Forest Park for making a positive impact on the community, and thank you to Ms. Cricket for creating this innovative project!
