Thank you for posting Amanda, that one gets me everytime I watch it. Both the USA and UK arms work together and our funds will be well used in their upcoming campaigns. More details here: www.bornfreeusa.org/ and here: www.bornfree.org.uk/They are now offering animal sponsorships and many other ways you can help. At the opening we'll be offering a lot of take away materials as well as a pamphlet including information on all the endangered species that are being covered in this special exhibit. So looking forward to sharing all of this with everyone come May 26th.

SPECIAL NOTE TO ALL THOSE ATTENDING THE SHOW IN LA: Please bring out blankets (new or recycled), comforters, dog and cat beds, towels, toys, treats, and other pet-related items. These are needed all year round and this show will serve as a big push but please know we will continue to be a drop base throughout the year. We gathered a huge mountain of toys and blankets last show and our goal is to get at least twice as much together this show. Please help us. Operation Blankets of Love is an award winning non-profit organization. They have an Emergency Response Team providing comfort to homeless animals. Your donations provide warmth, comfort and a sense of security while creating a homelike setting. This increases their chances of being adopted which saves lives. Full details here: www.operationblanketsoflove.com/drop_off.html

Jacub Gagnon 'Atlas' mini giclee print for 'Wild At Heart: Keep Wildlife In The Wild' - free with donation of $10 or more to Born Free USA - opening Sat, May 26th at Thinkspace Thinkspace will give a free Jacub Gagnon mini-print to the first 100 people who donate at least $10 in cash or more via the Born Free USA donation box that will be on our counter opening night. This is cash only as Born Free will be taking this donation box back up with them after opening night and just easiest for all to go directly to them. Jacub Gagnon 'Atlas' Giclee print on acid-free cotton rag paper 6x9 inches edition of 100 Just be sure to talk to one of our gallery reps at the back desk in our office area, and they'll hook you up once you place some funds in the box. This is a great way to help us net that much more for Born Free USA. Many thanks to Jacub for allowing us to do this and to Static Medium for pulling out the stops this week to help us get these printed up in time for this weekend.

We are so excited to share this preview with you all. This show has been a true labor of love and we are just thrilled with the works all have submitted. DIGITAL PREVIEW for 'WILD AT HEART': thinkspacegallery.com/works/?exhibit=164&p=pr0t3ct If you would like to reserve any of the works or have questions on anything at all, please don't hesitate to reach out to me via contact@thinkspacegallery.com. Please send over your main choice and an alternate or two if you can, as we have had a big outreach of preview requests for this special exhibit. To be fair to our patrons around the world and to those that have inquired in advance about many of the participating artists, we are giving all today to view the preview and get back to us with their choices. Starting tomorrow, Thursday May 24th at noon PST we will begin to get back to those that have gotten in touch with us to confirm what works are available. When replying with your choices please be sure to include your full name and phone number. With a show this size and so much demand, this will just help us go through all the responses in a much more timely fashion. Many thanks in advance! We will be installing the show over the next couple days, so please know we will be hard to get in touch with via the gallery phone and e-mail is best. Please know any missing information or images on the digital preview will be updated by tomorrow morning. Appreciate the support and excitement over the Horkey print release. I wish we had more and wish we could open up sales now, but due to our arrangement with Aaron, this is how he would like sales handled and so the excitement is centered around the show and opening itself.

Thank you all - finished with install and the space looks incredible. This has been a very tough show to please everyone and I can't thank everyone enough for the support and understanding. We had just over 120 collectors reach out to us after the digital preview had been spread with many after the same works and never easy to tell someone no that wants to support what you're doing. Much to come from Hush and many of the others in the show, so please stay in touch and we'll post opening shots here on Sun/Mon.
Details to follow this afternoon/early evening as well on the rollout plans for the Horkey drop tomorrow. Thanks again everyone!
