‘My Pet Project' will be hosting its very first event, 'Caturday', on the 10th of December '16, at Clay Station Dhaka. Launched on the 4th of October '16, 'My Pet Project' is an art initiative by visual pop artist Saria Saguaro who operates under the alias Pretty Shitty Art. She offers to draw pet portraits in exchange for donations - all of which go to animal shelters and clinics here in Bangladesh such as Care for Paws, ALB Animal Shelter, Obhoyaronno and Paw Foundation. She rescuing a puppy with her partner back in March 16, she'd been looking for ways to work with local shelters. Taking a leaf out of her personal sketchbook where she draws her dog Pookie, she started the Project. So far she has raised over BDT 30 000. A percentage of the sales will go to the shelters and with every purchase made, Pretty Shitty Art and Stellar will be giving out recycled hand-made toys to the shelter animals.
