Friday, October 4th, was an exciting time. It was the annual Art for Animals fundraiser. This year the event was held at a beautiful house perfect for any occasion at 154 Shuter Street, Toronto. The fundraising event occupied all 3 floors of the house. The goal for the fundraiser is to support Mercy for Animals, which is an international farmed animal protection organization. Proceeds from the ‘evening’s silent auction go to Mercy For Animals, a non-profit organization dedicated to stop cruelty to farmed animals and promoting compassionate food choices and policies.

10月4日星期五是激動人心的一天,因為年這是 Art for Animals 在這天的晚上舉辦一年一度的動物藝術籌款活動。今年的活動在多倫多Shuter街154號的豪宅舉行 。今年的公益募款活動佔用了這棟房的所有3個樓層。此活動的目標是支持國際動物保護組織 Mercy for Animals。 當晚無聲拍賣的收入將捐給非營利組織 Mercy For Animals,該組織致力於制止對養殖動物的殘酷對待,並倡導富有同情心的食品選擇和「零殘忍」政策。

 

 

Throughout the three floors, the art for auction was on display and guests could spend time observing the artwork and deciding on which pieces to place a bid. The collection was unique and varied. There’s a piece of artwork for everyone’s artistic tastes. Included in the silent auction were designer clothing contributions from Hilary MacMillan and a coat from Wuxly and theatre tickets.

  • Guests enjoyed delicious hors d’oeuvres from Animal Liberation Kitchen of 717 Queen Street East, Toronto.

Delicious carrot lox, smashed avocado and chickpea appetizers, antojitos filled with fresh vegetables quickly vanished! The energy balls made of dried dates, figs, hazelnuts, almonds etc. were to die for! So the guests ate very well and very nutritiously!

賓客享用位於多倫多717 Queen Street East的Animal Liberation Kitchen餐廳所準備的美味開胃小菜,包括紅蘿蔔燻鮭魚酪梨和鷹嘴豆泥做的小點、裝滿新鮮蔬菜的antojitos墨西哥捲餅。這些可口的佳餚很快就消失了!用乾棗、無花果、榛子、杏仁等製成的「能量球」爆好吃!當晚的菜色讓貴賓們吃得很好也吃得有營養!

  • On the second floor was the bar where guests used their tickets included with the admission ticket price to select glasses of wine or beer.

The atmosphere was comfortable and inviting with sofas where people could relax and chat. DJ music set the scene. The third floor had more art for the silent auction on display. Guests enjoyed the lovely fall evening weather on the terrace while admiring the night view of the Toronto skyline. A professional photo booth was all set up to make memories last.

  • Halfway through the evening, Organizer Colombe Nadeau-O’Shea gathered the group of guests on the second floor to thank everyone and to have others speak about the purpose of the fundraiser – for the animals’ benefit. The raffle prize draw numbers were called, and happy winners accepted several very generous prizes, including gift cards to Kupfert & Kim restaurant and Fresh restaurant, which are both vegetarian restaurants.

The organization thanked their sponsors Wuxly Movement, Hilary MacMillan, Classical 96.3 FM radio, and Zoomer Radio.
