Over the past few weeks, students have been drawing, painting, and working away to complete their "Pet Portrait" highlighting an animal that is currently up for adoption at Pawportunities, a shelter out of Blue Springs, Missouri. 
Now, students drawings or paintings will be up for auction with all proceeds benefitting Pawportunities! A silent auction will be held where the community will have an opportunity to bid on the students "Pet Portraits". This year's Silent Auction will be on November 21st from 5:00-7:00 p.m. at Grain Valley South Middle School, (901 E Ryan Rd, Grain Valley, MO 64029).

Pawportunities staff will be onsite during the Silent Auction to answer questions, and provide information about adopting or fostering animals through their shelter. The shelter will also have animals on site during the event.
