In a unique and heartwarming partnership, the Wisconsin Dance Theatre Conservatory, The Art of Life: Photography and Design, and Albert's Dog Lounge Rescue have come together to create something truly special for 2025: the "Dancers & Dogs" calendar. This project will showcase the grace and beauty of ballet, paired with the resilience and spirit of senior and special needs rescue dogs.

But we need your help to make it happen.

The "Dancers & Dogs" calendar is more than just a collection of stunning images—it's a celebration of life, art, and second chances. Each month will feature a captivating photograph of a ballet dancer in a beautiful, expressive pose, alongside one of the remarkable dogs from Albert's Dog Lounge Rescue. These dogs, each with their own story of hardship and hope, will be captured in a moment of joy, illustrating their unique beauty and their desire for a new lease on life.

Why This Calendar Matters

Senior and special needs dogs are often overlooked in shelters and rescues, their stories untold, their potential unseen. At Albert's Dog Lounge Rescue, we believe that every dog deserves a chance to be loved, regardless of age or ability. By combining the elegance of ballet with the heartwarming presence of these dogs, we hope to inspire our community to see the value and beauty in every life. The proceeds from the sale of this calendar will go directly to Albert's Dog Lounge Rescue, helping us provide medical care, comfort, and a loving environment to dogs who need it most.

How You Can Help: Become a Sponsor

To bring this vision to life, we are seeking sponsors who are passionate about supporting the arts, animal rescue, or both. Sponsorships will help cover the costs of creating and printing the calendars, ensuring that 100% of the proceeds can go directly to the rescue and its mission.

We offer three levels of sponsorship to choose from:

One Month Sponsorship: $500
Your logo and a short description will be featured on the back of the calendar, along with a QR code directing people to your business website. You will also receive a monthly social media shoutout cross-posted on all three partner accounts, plus all the warm fuzzies knowing you've helped dogs in need.
Two Months Sponsorship: $900
The same benefits as above, but for two months, doubling your exposure and impact.
Three Months Sponsorship: $1,300
For maximum visibility, your sponsorship covers three months with all the same great benefits, while giving you the satisfaction of knowing you're making a significant difference in the lives of senior and special needs dogs.
