This is the firm deadline for artists to return their finished Owls. They will then be sent for clear-coating.
We hope to get all Owls on their perches by Memorial Day Weekend.
Our auction will take place at a venue and date to be determined.
Our artists hail from right here in Coxsackie, to neighboring towns in the Capital Region. Keep an eye out in 2025 when we'll be looking for artists to submit their sketches!
Our sponsors donate $500 each for the honor of sponsoring one of our beautiful owls. With that tax-deductible donation comes credit on the owl's name plaque. The money covers the cost of a primed owl, its mounting brackets, shipping, weather protection, artists supply fee, and promotion of the festival. Our owls wouldn't be possible without our very generous sponsors!
The Hoot of the Owl Committee is inviting you to be part of the celebration, too. Won’t you please become a What a Hoot! Supporter? Your donation will help Coxsackie’s festival soar by providing much needed funding for promotion, thereby ensuring success. While promoting What a Hoot!, the committee will also give you and your business recognition through social media and extensive advertising. We do hope that you will join us.
