Blue Mound 287 Self Storage will be co-sponsoring a graffiti/street-arts festival in Fort Worth, Texas, on March 17, to benefit the Texas chapter of SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) International, an animal rescue and support shelter. The “Art-On-A-Can” event will take place at Box Office Warehouse Suites, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., featuring a pet-adoption clinic, food, live music, a St. Patrick’s Day costume contest, arts-and-crafts vendors, and a gallery walk featuring work from local street artists.
Admission is $5 for adults and free for children under 12. All entrance fees will support the SPCA. Tickets can be purchased on site or in advance at graffitiartfestival.com.
In addition to serving as a sponsor, Blue Mound will offer a free three-month rental of a 10-by-10 storage unit as part of the event’s prize drawings.
"I've known the management team at Blue Mound now for over 10 years," said Ron Sturgeon, owner of RDS Real Estate, the event coordinator. "I've always found them to be community-minded, professional in every way, and more than willing to step up when the cause is a good one.”
The storage facility at 870 Blue Mound Road W. is locally owned and operated. In addition to traditional storage, the property offers vehicle storage.
Headquartered in New York, SPCA works to stop animal abuse and suffering through a number of programs.
