The Orange Show presents Animal Rhapsody

Saturday, September 7 | 4-8pm
Orange Show World HQ
2334 Gulf Terminal Drive, Houston, TX 77023

A throwback to one of our oldest and most outlandish programs from 40 years ago, Animal Rhapsody spotlights the incredible talents of the furry, feathered, slithery, and scaly.

Bring the whole family for an afternoon of animal action, a locally crafted vendor market, a pop-up art show, and just like the original 1984 Animal Rhapsody, stage performance by the legendary MyDolls! A portion of the event's proceeds will benefit Barrio Dogs and their mission to creating a better future for animals and the community.

Think your pet has what it takes to steal the show (and our hearts)? We want to see them in action!
Do you create animal-related art? We want to showcase you in our pop-up exhibition!
Are you a maker that creates handmade pet accessories or treats? Come be a vendor!

The Orange Show is now accepting entries for participating pets performers, pop-up artists, and vendors now through September 1. Fill out the form below to join us!
