Deviant Art ~ Dispelling Myths 2 is coming!

We are looking for artists who work in any medium and the more creative and different the better! We are very interested in artists who are innovative in their work.

Your work has to have a dog theme.  In particular art depicting or inspired by pit bulls and Rottweilers. However, any breed that has been characterized by the public as a menace is welcome. For example, Akitas, Chows and Wolf Hybrids (Breeds in addition to pit bulls and Rottweilers most recently slated to be banned in Minnesota). In the past the German Shepherds as well as Doberman Pinchers were also labeled enemies of the public.

Artists seeking inspiration are encouraged to visit A Rotta Love Plus’ website and explore our blog. If you are interested in an interview to learn more about ARLP from a different perspective we can be reached personally by emailing Lara.

Artists will retain the majority of proceeds for the sale of their art with a small percentage going to support ARLP. Artists interested in donating their work to benefit pit bull and Rottweiler rescue are welcomed and appreciated! There is no fee to display work and all work must be ready to be hung (if 2D). The show will be at the Northrup King Building’s third floor gallery.

Email a little about yourself and the medium you work in, and a link to see your work (if available) to Sarah Thornton.  Please include an introduction, your questions, and/or images of your work for submission to the show. Art will formerly be accepted for consideration in the form of a jpg during the month of January. Please include medium, size and title of pieces you would like considered for show.

Serious artist only need apply!

Deviant Art: Dispelling Myths 2 will have a preview party on First Thursday in April (April 1st) from 5-9pm and a main party on April 10th from approx 3-8pm

Who are we? A Rotta Love Plus is a small 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to rehoming Rottweilers and pit bulls in Minnesota, raising breed awareness, educating the public about responsible pet ownership, and advocating for the humane and equal treatment of all dogs without prejudice.
