To participate, each guest who buys a lottery ticket is automatically eligible in one of four drawings. Attendees have the option to make a donation of $1,000, $750, $500, or $250. Guests at the $1,000 level are entered in the first-round drawing, guests at the $750 level are entered in the second-round drawing, guests at the $500 level are entered in the third-round drawing, and guests at the $250 level are entered in the final round drawing. A maximum of fifty lottery tickets will be sold and every lottery ticket holder is a guaranteed winner!
Tickets will be randomly drawn one at a time for each level starting at the $1,000 level. As the ticket is called, the ticket-holder will select an image from the wall and take it home that night. Guests purchasing a $75 ticket are not entered in the lottery drawings but are invited to attend the party, participate in the silent auctions and cheer on the fun.
This year we are also very pleased to present three special auctions featuring rare photographs from three world-class photographers: Subhankar Banerjee, Daniel Beltrá, and Phil Borges. All attendees of the lottery are eligible to bid on any of these three framed prints.
