Broadway Barks! works in collaboration with The Mayor's
Alliance for NYC's Animals, Inc., which deals with issues of animal care and
control, and brings together numerous not-for-profit animal care groups. Broadway Barks 7! will be produced by
Broadway Care/Equity Fights AIDS and sponsored by Animal Planet,
Dogsters, The New York Times, Loews Hotels, and Sherpa. Last year's Broadway Barks! attracted an audience of
more than 6,000 theater fans, pet owners, and animal lovers, and
featured the participation of more than 24 animal shelters from the New
York City area.
"Mary and I are delighted that Broadway Barks! continues to be such a
popular event, and we are deeply moved by the enthusiasm and support
from the legions of fans and animal lovers who attend the event every
year," stated Broadway legend Peters, who adopted her dogs, Kramer and Stella, from the
ASPCA and ACC.
Broadway Barks 7! will also feature an auction of celebrity-autographed
memorabilia. Additional auction merchandise will be available via the
Internet by logging on to www.eBay.com and using the key words "Broadway
Barks." Proceeds from the auction and other donations received during
the day will benefit the shelters and organizations attending Broadway Barks 7!.
Shubert Alley is located between 44th and 45th Streets, between Broadway and Eighth Avenue. In the event of
rain, the event will be rescheduled for Sunday, July 31 at 12
noon.
