BARKITECTURE

Triangle Barkitecture is a one-of-a-kind pet architecture and design competition to raise money for pets in need by supporting local foster and pet rescue organizations right here in the Triangle. Local architects, engineers, designers, and creative minds all over the Triangle compete to create the best custom pet architecture that is then auctioned off at the event with 100% of those profits going to pets in need.

Triangle Barkitecture returned for it’s biggest fundraising year yet on October 11th at Downtown Cary Park in Cary NC. The event raised over $48,000 for local pet rescue organizations and featured over 20 new designs from local architects and designers.
