Hope for the Howlidays @ Humane Society of Tacoma and Pierce County
Tickets
Dec 31 all-day

Every year, thousands of shelter pets spend the holidays alone, longing for a forever home. We know you can’t adopt all of them, but you can still make a profound difference for animals in need at the Humane Society for Tacoma & Pierce County. While dogs, cats, and critters wait for their new families, you can let these fur babies know they haven’t been forgotten by sponsoring them during this festive time of year!

During this event, you can sponsor a shelter pet to bring comfort and joy to a homeless pet and also provide the food, safe housing, and medical care they need while they wait for their forever home.

Sponsor a shelter pet today!

“Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”

– Mary Oliver.

Is this something you have thought about lately?

A time to think about your own intentions and just how your wild and precious life can be.

I believe hope is fundamental to the human spirit.

That dreams are where ideas are born.

That our imaginations help us to carve new paths and see new perspectives in our lives.

Change can be hard and it’s important to have reality checks so we can prepare for this… but your desire for growth, learning, and change are essential to your well-being.

Change rarely happens in the ways we think it will.

Let’s create an Intention. This can bring tremendous insight into your life. Let’s dip into our deepest selves and set a clear one-word intention that helps us navigate life with compassion and intention.

Each year my word holds the key to a valuable piece of insight.

What’s your word for 2022?

Any ideas.

Invite your word in!

Let’s let go of 2021 and start off the new year with positive energy.

You get to:

*Choose a word as a focus and a motivator for the year.

*Set an intention, about how you want your year to flow.

With meditation you can envision your word for the year.

You get to paint your word on a canvas board, canvas or water color paper after some painting background fun!

MATERIALS:

* 5×7 or 8×10 canvas, canvas board or water color paper or cardboard piece

* a variety of acrylic paints
