More about Blue Dog Rescue:

Blue Dog Rescue, Inc. was formed in 2000 as a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization. Our mission is to find permanent, loving homes for homeless dogs from Central Texas shelters in order to reduce the number of animals being euthanized. We are strongly committed to the spaying and neutering of all companion animals. Our group receives no government funding; we are funded solely through donations and adoption fees. Blue Dog Rescue has no paid staff but rather utilizes a base of volunteers who work in a variety of roles such as fostering dogs, fund- raising, PR or coordinating adoption days.

Works of public art have the capacity to resonate deeply, stimulate curiosity, and inspire the imagination in unexpected ways. At The University of Texas at Austin, the public art collection is one of the most distinguishing features of the main campus, shaping impressions and offering a distinctive setting for memorable experiences.

As the university’s public art program, Landmarks enriches the lives of students and visitors by presenting art that is broadly accessible and free to all. Some fifty works of modern and contemporary art are throughout the 433-acre campus and viewed by thousands of people every day.

For many, the collection provides an introductory opportunity to discover great works of art. By creating equitable pathways to meaningful engagement, Landmarks reflects the complex audiences we serve and celebrates our differences.

Visit soon to discover why Landmarks is a point of pride for the university and all people of the State of Texas.
