As part of the Friends of the Animal Center Foundation Shelter Art Project,
we will be accepting submissions of poetry and prose for a book to be published in late 2011. 
Sales will benefit Friends of the Animal Center Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit that raises funds
to support and expand the animal care services of the Iowa City Animal Care & Adoption Center.

A panel will review and select entries to be published in the book, which will be sold in local stores and at FACF fundraising events.
