Pottery Show for the benefit of the RVHS

July's First Friday, July 6th, 2012, at RCC's Firehouse Gallery, will offer a unique opportunity for folks to enjoy and purchase art to help the animals of Josephine County.

The members of STCA (Second Thursday Clay Artists) created original handmade ceramics. The show will be in place for the month of July. All work has an animal theme. All the pieces were especially made or chosen for this show. Because of their love of animals, the artists are donating all proceeds to the Rogue Valley Humane Society.

This group of ceramic artists has shown their pieces at various venues including Art In The Garden and First Friday at the Grants Pass Museum. Their talents are wide ranging, and recently they’ve been lending these talents to putting this fun and unique show together.

The show will be in the Community Exhibits Room at FireHouse Gallery, Grants Pass, Oregon, July 6-26. The hours are Tuesday-Friday 11:30-4:30 with First Friday reception July 6, 6-9pm.

For Auction: Late 1800 circa - beautiful dark Oriental teak wood or mahogany desk. ALL proceeds go to the Rogue Valley Humane Society. More at: Antique Desk

I RESCUED A HUMAN TODAY...

Her eyes met mine as she walked down the corridor peering apprehensively into the kennels. I felt her need instantly and knew I had to help her. I wagged my tail, not too exuberantly, so she wouldn't be afraid.

As she stopped at my kennel I blocked her view from a little accident I had in the back of my cage. I didn't want her to know that I hadn't been walked today. Sometimes the shelter keepers get too busy and I didn't want her to think poorly of them.

As she read my kennel card I hoped that she wouldn't feel sad about my past. I only have the future to look forward to and want to make a difference in someone's life.

She got down on her knees and made little kissy sounds at me. I shoved my shoulder and side of my head up against the bars to comfort her. Gentle fingertips caressed my neck; she was desperate for companionship.

A tear fell down her cheek and I raised my paw to assure her that all would be well. Soon my kennel door opened and her smile was so bright that I instantly jumped into her arms. I would promise to keep her safe. I would promise to always be by her side. I would promise to do everything I could to see that radiant smile and sparkle in her eyes. I was so fortunate that she came down my corridor. So many more are out there who haven't walked the corridors. So many more to be saved. At least I could save one. Yes, I could save one.

I rescued a human today.
