The Bunny Art Show at East Bay SPCA has been a huge hit in Dublin, CA. The concept of the Bunny Art Show was to have local artists create portraits of East Bay SPCA rabbits looking for forever homes. The artists are all animal lovers but most have never had pet rabbits. In response to the overwhelming interest in the Bunny Art Show, many of the artists are adding more artwork this month.
Michelle Chan, Eileen Crowley, Valerie Daft, Carol Hart, Kathleen Hill, Lenore Kreit, Diana Marion, Christine McCall, Linda Ryan, Marcy Schaaf and Shelly Yen have already created more than 60 portraits of adoptable bunnies offered by the House Rabbit Society, Harvest Home Animal Sanctuary, select local shelters, and individual rescues.
