The Great Art Theft Returns!
Sunday, September 26th
3:00 - 6:00 p.m.

Art...

The Great Art Theft will take place Sunday, September 26th. This wildly popular annual event raises funds for much needed renovations. The profits from previous years have paid to refurbish the original maple floor in the gallery,  paint and re-carpet the gallery walls, add new lights in the gallery and showcases, a new heating and air-conditioning system,  solar installations, and a new floor and paint in the Raymund Room. And yet there is more to be done…

At The Great Art Theft (where great art is a steal) local artists have donated paintings, sculptures, jewelry, ceramics and much more to be on display starting Sept. 4. During the next month, come view the art, pick your favorite(s) and buy a ticket. For the mere price of $85, you can own an original piece of art donated by these artists (art valued at much more than the price of a ticket.) When you buy a ticket, your name is put in a basket and drawn one by one at the gala on Sunday, Sept. 26th.  As your name is called you choose your favorite piece. The party starts at 3 p.m. and goes until 6 p.m.

Tickets are $85 and may be purchased online or at the Art Center from 12 to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. Refreshments will be available.  Don’t miss an opportunity to own a beautiful piece of art at a price you can afford – a real “steal.”  This year’s gala will be outside on the patio as well as in the gallery. We have added a few new twists and it promises to be lots of fun. Please join us!!!!!

Tickets for the gala are $85.00.
