Tampa Halloween Art Fundraiser - Pumpkin Pets

Join us at New World Tampa for a special Tampa Halloween Fundraiser —no, we’re not painting on your pets (leave the fur babies at home)! Instead, we are taking a photo of your beloved companion and turning it into a colorful, custom portrait.

We’re painting your pets as pumpkins, sipping seasonal drinks, and raising funds for a paws-itively great cause! 🐶🐱💕

A portion of each ticket will go directly to The Mercy Project, helping rescue and care for vulnerable animals in our community. Learn more about their mission: mercyfullprojects.org

🎟️ Grab your spot, bring a friend, and let’s paint for a purpose! Let’s make this session a howling success!

🖌️ When: Sunday, October 26th, 2025
🕒 Time: 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM
📍 Where: New World Tampa, Tampa, FL

• Expert instruction from Savana
• All painting supplies included
• Drinks and food available for purchase from New World Tampa
• A delightful afternoon to relax, unwind, and unleash your creativity!

Please send your pet photo to by noon on Wednesday, October 22nd. The best photos are taken at eye level and close-up, portrait style. If you aren’t sure which photo to use you can submit more than one and we’ll help you pick! Only one pet per photo.

All artists will be provided with a pre-sketched canvas and a print of their pet’s photo for color reference. Only ONE pet per photo as you won't have the time or stamina to attempt more than one.

Beginners encouraged! Leave your stress at the door and enjoy a fun night in creative company. Our Master Artist will provide all the guidance you need to paint a pet portrait shining with paw-sonality. Learn expert techniques to create your furry friend’s portrait.

Our venue partners allow the use of their space so you can enjoy their great food and beverage options while creating your Masterpiece. Please come hungry/ thirsty to help support these local restaurant’s since they have been so kind by letting us host events at their locations.

Plan to join us 15 minutes early to browse the New World Tampa menu and order some delicious food & drink for your painting session.
