Humane Pennsylvania - Art for Arf's Sake Auction 2024!

This Year, Art for Arf’s Sake is Going PUNK!

1977: David “Starsky and Hutch” Soul had an awful song hit number one and The New York Times called punk rock “London’s latest fad.” Over ten million animals were killed in shelters each year. It was unheard of for an animal shelter to even have a veterinarian on staff, let alone a veterinary hospital.

2024: Gas stations play The Clash and Talking Heads on their overhead speakers. Shelter euthanasia has dropped by over 90% (and 98% at Humane PA). Humane PA has one of the most expansive veterinary programs in the region. Like the punk rockers in 1977, HPA knows that if you don’t like what’s playing on the radio, you have to write your own song.

On Saturday, October 12, 2024, we’re turning up the volume at our newly renovated Lancaster Campus in Lancaster, PA for Humane Pennsylvania’s Art for Arf’s Sake Auction! This year’s theme is 1977 Punk Rock Revolution and will honor that legacy of creating the kind of change that wrestles music- or animal welfare- to the ground and changes it forever . Dive headfirst into a high-class, low-brow, up-close and exciting live and silent auction featuring mind-blowing art, epic experiences, and street food you’d grab after a late-night show inspired by the 1977 scenes of London, New York, and beyond!
