2020 VIRTUAL FUNDRAISING LOTTERY Although we have had to cancel this year’s traditional carta events, we are continuing to purchase new artwork from local artists and galleries. To those who generously donate $200 or more, we are offering a chance to take home one of our new 2020 acquisitions for our traditional one-year loan period. If you draw a piece that you would like to have in your own permanent collection, these works will be for sale unless otherwise noted. DATE: Sunday, October 4, 2020 - 4:00pm ELIGIBILITY FOR LOTTERY: Those who donate a total of $200 or more by midnight, Monday, September 28th, 2020. DETAILS: We are excited to announce that there will be 27 pieces in our Virtual Lottery. The Lottery will be live via Zoom. The names of all qualifying donors will be placed in a bowl for random selection. First name drawn, first choice, etc. We will continue drawing names until we run out of new acquisitions. PREVIEW ARTWORK ONLINE: carta will be featuring our new acquisitions and info on the artists who created them on this site, and we are featuring special insights from the artists on our Instagram and Facebook pages.
