Mrs Rusty Bucket Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 The National Art Gallery in Canberra and the Portrait Gallery (Old Parliament house) hosted some sort of dogs and art bring your dog... event... "The National Gallery of Australia and National Portrait Gallery will open up their grounds to dogs on January 21 for Paws for Art, a dog day out to tie in with the Versailles: Treasures from the Palace exhibition. " http://www.canberratimes.com.au/act-news/canberra-life/paws-for-art-day-at-the-national-gallery-of-australia-and-national-portrait-gallery-20170116-gts43n.html did anyone go? Plus Port Elliot on Fleurieu Peninsula is planning one on April 29th (which unfortunately clashes with an agility trial so I won't be there).

Vehs Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 We were very keen to go - but Charlotte has not recovered from her cruciate surgery and is even bitchier than usual to people when she's being pushed in her pram. I'm going to the regular exhibition so hopefully will still hear about the dogs of Versailles CleoJ went not sure if she's still on DOL much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papillon Kisses Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 We will be going to the Popular Pet Show exhibition at some point. The big bring-your-dogs-and-kids event was today, but the exhibition itself is open until the 13th March. So still time! http://www.portrait.gov.au/exhibitions/the-popular-pet-show-2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappi&Monty Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 That looks awesome I wish I'd seen it & somehow been able to go! My Grandmother really wanted to go to the Treasures of Versailles exhibit but had no one to go with so we could've gone! That's a shame. Two of my favourite things; dogs & art!
