RICHMOND’S FIRST ANNUAL BARKITECTURE + KITTY COUTURE EVENT
Presented by ASID Virginia Chapter and Richmond Animal League
Barkitecture + Kitty Couture 2017 is coming! Join us to celebrate paws with pints and experience innovative dog houses and kitty cottages designed and built by local interior designers, architects, students and animal lovers alike. Barkitecture is a design show, competition, silent auction, and most importantly a fundraiser! Houses will be auctioned off through a silent auction with proceeds benefitting Richmond Animal League and the Virginia Chapter of ASID. With live music from Richmond’s own The Neons and Dragon Run, enjoy browsing the houses, placing your bids and take your cottage home with you! “We are really excited to bring Barkitecture Kitty Couture to Richmond. With so many talented designers and animal lovers in our community, we know we can raise enough money to make a big impact for RAL and ASID Virginia,” said Melissa Moseley, ASID with HKS Architects.
