DON'T MISS THE 6TH YEAR OF THE FAMOUS CATSKILL CATS
On Sunday, January 29th 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 one hundred artists' submissions for this year's
Cat'n Around Catskill 2012 Celebration.
The litter of plain white kitties arrived from Chicago and shortly after met their artists who have now transformed them into incredibly talented works of art. This year you will meet "Cat-a-Cola", "Sir Purr-ceval", "Cat Ca Doodle Doo" and "A"Cat"emy Cat", just to name a few.
The highly anticipated release of the sixth litter of now famous cats will be installed on the street in time for the Memorial Day weekend in the Village of Catskill and this year in Leeds along Rt. 23B. This year's celebration features 43 fabulous felines along Main Street, the 9W and Rt. 23B
in Leeds.
They will remain in residence through Sunday, September 16th.
The Cat's Meow Auction and Gala will be held on
Sunday, September 30th at The Historic Catskill Point.
Our extraordinary auctioneer, Russ Carlsen, from Carlsen Galleries in Freehold, NY will once again conduct the live auction. Don't miss this fun filled event
