After weeks of preparing, painting and collaging new pieces for the upcoming Celebration FOR The Turkeys at Farm Sanctuary in Orland, CA, I delivered my artwork and "heartwork" to the Volunteer Work Party day, Saturday November 12. Work Party days are a great way for potential supporters of Farm Sanctuary to get involved and discover firsthand what the sanctuary is about. The work is not glamorous - raking fields, de-cobwebbing the barns, cleaning the facilities - but the rewards - hugging goats, kissing pigs and brushing cows - are well worth the sweat equity.

If you aren't busy the weekend before Thanksgiving, please join me at Farm Sanctuary to honor the turkeys of the shelter. Tickets are going fast for this special event featuring guests like Biz Stone of Twitter and Gene Baur, co-founder of Farm Sanctuary (as well as many others). Enjoy a delicious Vegan feast, listen to guest speakers, discover new information, and be a part of the beautiful ceremony honoring our feathered friends.

While you are at the event, you can bid on my artwork as well as other great items in the auction, with proceeds going to support Farm Sanctuary. It's a weekend of fun, food and fine feathered friends (as well as furry ones).
