Funky bluegrass band Liver Down the River and local favorite Zac Grant will perform at Wüffstock at the Gardens, a dog-friendly concert benefiting Roice-Hurst Humane Society on June 7. The event takes place at Western Colorado Botanical Gardens, 655 Struthers Ave., and doors open at 3 p.m. Music begins at 4 p.m.

The event will feature: adoptable pets from Roice-Hurst Humane Society; food trucks, including Armando Tacos and Hunger Tech; and vendor booths. Attendees are encouraged to bring a lawn chair or blanket if desired.

Tickets cost $30 for adults and teens in advance; and they are $35 at the gate. Children under 13 years old and well-behaved, leashed dogs enter for free. Tickets are available at www.rhhumanesociety.org/wuffstock. All proceeds benefit the pets and programs at Roice-Hurst Humane Society, a nonprofit animal shelter and adoption center that provides individualized care and adoption services for dogs and cats, as well as support programs for owned pets in Mesa and Delta Counties.

Wüffstock at the Gardens is sponsored at the gold level by St. Mary’s Regional Hospital, Mountain West Dermatology Aesthetics and Whitewater Building Materials; at the silver level by Republic Services, Dog Dynasty and Rocky Mountain Leashes; and at the bronze level by Shelter Insurance agents Kerry Phillips and Carrie Konakis, Home Loan Insurance, Renewal by Andersen, Humphrey RV and Primary Care Partners.

“Wüffstock is an excellent opportunity to spend an evening of quality time with your loved ones, canines included, while supporting pets and people in our community,” said Zebulon Miracle, CEO of Roice-Hurst. “With live music, local vendors and dozens of wagging tails, this event is a celebration of the human-animal bond and everything that makes this community special.”
