Tomorrow, December 12, 2003 is the last day to get the exhibition raffle tickets for the District of Columbia Art Center 8th Annual Exhibition Raffle. An annual opportunity to win a six-week show in the DCAC gallery. Tickets are only $50 each for DCAC members and $100 for non-members. Note that a year's membership to DCAC costs as little as $30 making it possible to become a new member and enter the raffle for only $80. DCAC also encourages artists to join together with other artists and share the price of a ticket.

Tickets may be purchased at DCAC during gallery and theater hours tomorrow from 2-10 PM. For more information, please call (202)- 462-7833.

This is one of the most innovative ways to support one of our area's key non-profit art spaces. In the past artists have, as a small group, bought tickets and thus if you get 2-3 people together, the cost is even less. Past raffle winners include such artists as Jane Engle, Thomas Dryon, Manon Cleary, Lisa Brotman, Gay Glading, Margarida Kendall and Jo Rango.
