Zooinitas Takes You On A Safari To Talk To the Animals

Roaring with animal art, the Zooinitas exhibit will take the

public on a safari into the jungles of Encinitas were art reigns supreme. At an
opening reception on July 26, 2014, 1-4 pm at the Encinitas Library, 540

Cornish Dr., begin your tour into a collection of wild and unusual animals and
enter if you dare, to be greeted by a magnificent life-size wooden lion name
“Aldimere” created by artist Thomas Thomas.


 “This is a celebration of our area's lively art scene, with a particular focus

on art experiences that encouraged everyone to get involved, connect, and

gather, possibilities seem endless and imagination has no limits”.


The afternoon will provide support for the Rancho Coastal

Humane Society (RCHS), animal Safehouse Program
, a safety net for the

pets of domestic violence victims. Safehouse is also a lifeline for veterans,

senior citizens, accident victims, and…most recently…victims of the

fires. 


 The event has something for all ages and explores new techniques and celebrated  self-expression by exceptionally talented artists.  The original artworks
truly represent the animal world in a natural environment and will be available
for sale. Free to the public; enjoy music  by Second Cousin, and

refreshments as you take a tour into the virtual art studios of three artists, Joan Hansen, Gary Johnson
and Linda Luisi
who will be creating art, just in time for the silent auction
“Instead of spending thousands of dollars to travel to exotic places to see
wildlife, Zoonitas will bring images of these unique animals to you”.


You can show your support by dropping a small toy into the “Toys

for Pups” 
drop box out front, the day of the reception, browse an array of auction
items and show your support by learning about the RCHS programs.
