Celebrating animals’ amazing ability to heal, help people have a brighter day, and realize their potential.
Mark your calendars for the 25th Annual Picasso Pets, Hand in Paw's signature gala and live auction, on Saturday, August 22, at Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum!
Picasso Pets 2025 was an unforgettable evening at the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum on Saturday, August 23. Guests gathered in Superhero Chic style to celebrate the extraordinary bond between people and animals — and to support Hand in Paw’s mission of improving health and well-being through Animal-Assisted Therapy.
The evening began with a VIP Experience featuring signature Tito’s cocktails, wine, hors d’oeuvres, and an early unveiling of this year’s pet-inspired artworks. The main event included interactive activities, a silent auction full of unique items and luxury getaways, and opportunities to meet Hand in Paw Therapy Teams.
After the silent auction closed, guests enjoyed a seated dinner and program highlighting our mission. The live auction featured rare packages like the chance to make a beloved pet the Face of Picasso Pets 2026. We also presented the Tweety Lasker Award to an outstanding Program Partner and the Margaret Davis Volunteer Service Award to an exceptional volunteer.
Thanks to our sponsors, artists, volunteers, and guests, the night was filled with courage, compassion, and community. Are you interested in learning more about Picasso Pets 2026? Contact Margaret Stinnett.
