## About Creative & Calm: Art, Pottery & Reading

Expect a bit of beautiful chaos. Whether you are painting a tote bag or working with ceramics, a puppy might decide your paintbrush is a toy or your lap is the perfect place for a nap. We provide all the supplies, so just bring yourself, an open mind, and a willingness to get a little messy. You are not just here for an art session; you are here to help us raise funds for local shelters and give these streeties the visibility they deserve.

Our creative sessions are built on the belief that art should be therapeutic for you and helpful for the voiceless. We partner with local cafes and studios across cities like Mumbai, Bangalore, and Chennai to create safe, enclosed environments where you can relax.

### What to Expect
We run a variety of sessions, including:
- **Paint with Puppies:** Grab a canvas or tote bag. We provide paints, brushes, and prompts. Don't worry about being a pro artist; the puppies are the real focus.
- **Pottery with Puppies:** We focus on painting pre-made ceramic pieces. It is tactile and calming, allowing you to bond with the animals while you work.
- **Reading with Puppies:** A quiet, low-energy session designed for maximum snuggles and minimal stress.

### The Adoption Mission
Every single animal you interact with at our events is a rescue from a local shelter. They are all up for adoption, completely free of cost. We keep the groups small to ensure the animals are not overwhelmed and to give you a chance to truly connect with them. If you click with a pup during a session, we facilitate the entire adoption process.

### Why Your Ticket Matters
Your participation is direct support. A portion of every ticket goes directly to our partner shelters, funding vaccines, high-quality food, and medical care for the animals. By showing up, you are part of the revolution to change how society views our Indian streeties.

## About Pawga

We are just a bunch of people who couldn't ignore the state of our overloaded shelters. We started Pawga to mix the joy of art and yoga with the serious business of getting rescue animals adopted. We are the loud ones, the proud ones, and we are here to help you find your new best friend.
