Dear Friends and Followers,
On this special day, August 8—my birthday and the pinnacle of the Lion’s Gate portal, recognized as one of the most powerful days for manifesting—I am thrilled to share something close to my heart. Since 2015, we have devoted ourselves to rescuing animals, and this journey has been nothing short of magnificent, filled with love, challenges, and accomplishments.
Today, I am proud to introduce you to our rescue's latest mission, which is now official! We are excited to unveil our website, created with dedication by our Information Manager, Kathryn Griffiths, a steadfast member of our team since inception.
Our newish initiative, , is an inspiring fusion of animal rescue, artistic expression, and healing. With approximately 60 rescue animals currently residing on our farm—and many newcomers yet to be introduced—we strive to create a harmonious space where creativity and compassion intersect.
At , we leverage art education, art therapy, and the unique bond between humans and rescue animals to help individuals of all ages heal their inner shadows and reclaim their love for life.
Our approach is a symphony of passionate expression and community connection. Through art programs and personalized therapeutic experiences, both our rescued animals and participants undergo profound process.
We have hosted wonderful workshops with children, unveiling a vibrant tapestry of creativity and individuality. These sessions enrich their lives, enhancing social skills, conflict resolution, problem-solving abilities, and self-esteem while fostering joy and creativity.
Our adult workshops facilitate a journey of self-discovery, empowering participants to reconnect with their inner child and explore transformative aspects of themselves, ultimately embracing their divine potential and limitless possibilities.
Every interaction with the loving and sentient beings at our rescue nurtures compassion and empathy within us. The experience of reflecting on ourselves through the eyes of an animal is one of the most profound gifts we can offer ourselves and especially to our children.
With immense pride and excitement, I invite you to explore what we've been passionately crafting with our beloved Canines and Creatures.
Visit us at www.acres4art.com (http://www.acres4art.com), and join us in this journey of creativity, healing, and love. We hope you share in the joy and inspiration that we feel.
All funds raised through our art programs, art therapy, and the sale of artwork are used to sustain the farm, covering expenses such as hay, feed, animal bedding, veterinary care, and infrastructure repairs.
Sending love and gratitude to you and to the creative creature within you—“as within, so without.”
Love and light,
Carly ♥️💫
