Best in Show is an art show to benefit the Roanoke Valley SPCA. Because artists have always been at the forefront of our culture in expressing society’s concerns and giving a voice to the most helpless among us, we can think of no better partners in our community to help raise funds for the needy pets in our community.
This year the event will be held one night only – March 13, 2025. We’ll kick off the show with a VIP preview from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm.

This art show, sale, and fundraiser for the Roanoke Valley SPCA will feature more than 200 local artists original artwork – paintings, sculpture, pastels, and photography – depicting animals, to make Best in Show one of the most anticipated events in Roanoke.
