Mosesian Arts presents an exhibition featuring artwork inspired by pets. 

Summer at the Mosesian Center for the Arts is a time of creativity, learning and playing. Our summer classes, welcoming and supportive, are designed to foster creativity and connections between participants of various ages. To celebrate summer and its spirit of playfulness and friendship, Mosesian Arts presents artwork of all media that explores ideas of how pets impact our lives. Often, pets provide comfort and companionship, joy and friendship. Their antics are amusing, and they make us laugh. Pets, furred or feathered, have been our companions for centuries. They have inspired writers and artists to create artworks that capture their likeness, playfulness or their amazing spirit and personalities.
