Special Events Tonight (FRI 2/17) at the Skylight Court!

Fashions are coming in for Spring - also we're the best place to go if you want to look good for a cruise!  Lots of cuddly winter wear still available, too.  And we're getting ready for our Spring Fashion Show event in April.  

This week, the art gallery across the hall from Alana in the Joyce Skylight Court is sponsoring a worthy event.  Friday, February 17th.  It's a benefit for the Safe Haven program, which shelters the cats and dogs of women while they are in the protection of local battered-women shelters.

Music for the event by my husband, Gary Alan, and speakers will be featured at 7 pm from the Humane Society, captured in sign language for the hearing impaired.  Alana store will be open until 9 pm as well.  There is also to pick up great deals on Alana merchandise and good stuff from other local businesses at the Silent Auction .

The Wisconsin Humane Society and Sojourner Family Peace Center have partnered to provide theSafe Haven Program, which offers up to 60 days of shelter for animals of domestic violence victims.  Many victims are hesitant to leave a dangerous situation because they fear for their animal’s safety.  This program makes it possible for victims to leave a dangerous situation without losing their companion animal.  Animals provide companionship, comfort, and unconditional love to families affected by domestic violence, and preserving the bond between families and their animals is vitally important.


Companion Art Gallery will donate 20% of sales during the event, and will sponsor a Silent Auction and Raffle on behalf of the Safe Haven Program.


Bay View Bean CompanyLe Botique So Chic, andOscillations Art and Music Eclectic will also offer art and gift items for sale and will donate a portion of proceeds to the Safe Haven Program.
