The Patron Show
This fundraiser features donated artwork created by our member artists. Patrons have the opportunity to add valued artwork to their private collection. The artwork is not for sale, but will be awarded by drawing on the final day of the show. Tickets for the Patrons' Show generally sell out as soon as offered, usually on a Saturday morning in mid-January.
The Patrons' Show drawing works this way:
People buy Patrons' Show tickets for $125.00 in advance. We sell only as many tickets as we have works of art, so that every ticket holder will get one of the pieces of art. The first piece of art is raffeled off in the First Choice! raffle (details below), then the Patrons' Show drawing begins with the person whose ticket is drawn first getting selection of all the remaining pieces of art. The next person drawn can choose from anything not previously chosen until all the tickets have been pulled. The whole affair is very busy and a lot of fun. We serve food and drink during the evening to keep people going because it usually takes about four hours. It's a great game, and everyone goes home with something! We may have as many as 600 pieces of art, so it's a lively evening!
Please call the gallery 703-683-1780 for more information.
