Mark your calendars for our annual community celebration and healthcare fundraiser for our beloved and hardworking CEO zuzu! zuzu is turning 19 this year and she wants you to come celebrate!

ZUZU’S 19TH BIRTHDAY PAWTY
Sun March 10, from 12pm-4pm
100 S. Baldwin, 3rd floor gallery

The fun will include live interactive screen printing – you can pull your own zuzu print, live oil painted pet portraits, friendship bracelet making, cat coloring pages, zuzu button making, a zuzu-themed photo booth, live mandolin music, vegan cupcakes, and an epic raffle including baby zuzu plushies, a basket of cat toys, a cat tower, artwork by both Bernie and her dad, a quilt by Bernie’s mom and much more. Best of all zuzu herself will zoom in so we can sing happy birthday to her!!! Free and open to the public.

The raffle portion of the event is a fundraiser for zuzu’s health care fund. Zuzu has Chronic Kidney Failure, Hypertension, Thyroid disorder, Osteoarthritis and Acid Reflux. She takes 3 pills every 12 hours, gets subcutaneous fluids twice a week, gets monthly pain shots for her arthritis, B12 shots once a week, and has a senior exam and full bloodwork every 4-6 months. In the last year, Zuzu’s care has cost over $6,000. As a single person who’s sole income comes from selling my artwork and teaching, zuzu’s care is a significant financial burden.

If you can’t make the event or don’t live in Madison, please remember that we have lots of artwork and gifts available in our online store – and workshops too! – https://bernieandzuzu.com/

Thanks so much!

All our best, bernie & zuzu
