Sacramento SPCA
Kids Art Contest
In honor of Be Kind to Animals Week (May 4-10, 2008), the Sacramento SPCA is offering a Kids Art Contest! Create a piece of original artwork, and submit your entry to the Sacramento SPCA (details for submission below). Show your favorite pet, recall a fun experience you had at the Sacramento SPCA, or tell the world why it's important to be kind to all our animal friends.
We will choose one winner from each of three age categories:
Ages 7 and under
Ages 8-11
Ages 12-15
Winning entries will be featured on the Sacramento SPCA's website, and may appear in a future edition of our quarterly magazine, Heartline. Winners will also receive a $10 Jamba Juice gift card AND be asked to name one of our adoptable SPCA animals (your choice: dog, cat or rabbit!).
