Celebrate the special bond you share with your pet with a one-of-a-kind 8" x 10" custom portrait, handcrafted entirely from buttons and delicate beads. Using your pet's photos as inspiration, the artist will create a unique and colorful piece of art that captures their personality and makes a wonderful keepsake. Following the auction, the winning bidder will be contacted by email to discuss their preferences and submit three photos of their pet for the artist to work from. Your personalized portrait will be completed on or before Thanksgiving, just in time to make it an extra-special holiday keepsake! The finished artwork will be presented in an appropriately sized new Hobby Lobby frame. If you prefer a different frame or upgraded framing, those additional costs will be the responsibility of the auction winner. Please note: Portrait is for one pet only.

NOTE: Shipping is not available. If you attend the gala on October 17, you'll be able to leave the event with all of your winnings! If you aren't, we'll arrange pick-up with you at our Milwaukee, Green Bay, or Kenosha Campuses following the event.

After the auction closes, winners will receive email notification from WHS with available pick-up dates/times. Please note item pick-up is by scheduled appointment only.
