Painting benefit held for local animal rescue

Posted at: 03/24/2013 7:09 PM

If you like to paint, love pets and don't mind a glass or two of wine, Sunday's Nuts for Mutts fundraising event in Fairport was for you.

The local animal rescue group held a fundraiser called Painting with a Purpose.

Those in attendance took a class where an instructor showed them how to paint their own work of art. They were also allowed to enjoy some wine while they worked.??

Organizers say it's a fun way for donors to unleash their inner artist and support a good cause at the same time.

"We've had a great turnout today. It's definitely something we're going to do annually. It's very important to bring awareness to animal rescue and all of the dogs out there who are in need of forever homes,? said Nicole Rongo, volunteer coordinator at Nuts for Mutts.

Some of the money raised from the event will help cover food and vet costs for dogs at the Nuts for Mutts shelter.
