Cat-n-Around
Catskill 2008
“A Summer Long Celebration”
The cure for Cat’n Around Catskill
2007 “withdrawal” is on the way.
On Sunday, February 3rd the Artists and
Sponsors met at a reception held at BRIK Gallery on Main Street in
Catskill. Sponsors faced the daunting task of selecting the
design for their cat from over ninety artist’s submissions for this
year’s
Cat’n Around Catskill 2008
Celebration.
The litter of plain white kitties
have now arrived from Chicago and are going home with the artists to be
transformed over the next two months into incredibly talented works of
art. This year you will meet “Pussy Willow”, “Phil”- The
Philatelic Feline, Catson Pollock, Aero Cat and “Copurrnicus” just to
name a few.
The highly anticipated release of
the second litter of curious kitties will occur this
Memorial Day weekend in the Village of Catskill.
This year’s celebration will
feature 62 fabulous felines along Main Street and West Bridge Street
throughout the entire summer, culminating in the 2nd Cat’s Meow Auction and Gala on Sunday,
September 21st at The Historic Catskill Point.
