Austin Animal Center to celebrate Woofstock this weekend
Wednesday, January 24, 2024 by Elizabeth Pagano
This year’s Woofstock is ready to kick off, and this Saturday is a chance for Austinites to score tickets to the Feb. 16 Grace Potter concert. Each donation from noon to 1 p.m. at Austin Animal Center will mean a pair of tickets, distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. According to a press release from Austin Animal Center, they are in need of:
- Fleece blankets
- Non-rawhide dog bones
- Kongs
- Dog and cat toys
- Training treats for dogs
- XXL dog sweaters and coats
- Peanut butter
- Churu
- Cat treats
Woofstock was created in 2015 as a way for Austin City Limits Radio staff to support local animal shelters. Instead of purchasing tickets, attendees are encouraged to make a donation to a local shelter.
