What is Fur-CASSO?Fur-Casso is the first of its kind. A painting
experience that explores the creativity of a dog’s mind. The
world’s first painting class curated specifically for dogs, hosted
by dogs, with classical paintings as the muse. Fun and entertaining
for the dogs and their owners (ages 8+). Perfect for the entire family
outing or an out of the box date. A great way for your dog to
socialize outside of the stuffy dog kennels, hotels, and uppity dog
parks. Come experience a painting class like you have never
experienced before. The work of arts in each session is inspired by
world-renowned artist Picasso and yours for the taking.
How does it work?
Each class is about 4 hours long. Dogs remain on their leash and are
provided with paint, their own canvases, and paintbrushes. Each owner
will assist their dog in painting on the canvas. If you have more than
one dog, don’t worry, one of our doggy assistants will be on staff
to assist you.

Inspired by…
Pablo Picasso is perhaps best known for his paintings, but his
sculptures are among the most radical, thought-changing artworks of
the modern period. Picasso turned to sculpture with particular rigor
at several key moments in his career, using the medium as a testing
ground for ideas that would catalyze crucial shifts in his practice at
large.
Picasso’s life, like his art, was filled with animals. Dogs are
featured across Picasso’s work and were constant companions
throughout his life. He owned many breeds over the years, including
terriers, poodles, a Boxer, a Great Pyrenees, a German Shepherd, and
Afghan Hounds. The best known of his pet dogs is Lump the dachshund.
The relationship between artist and dog was described as a 'love
affair' and Lump appears in a number of Picasso’s paintings. He
lived with Picasso until a week before the artist’s death in 1973.
