Art (and more!) Off The Wall - a Gualala Arts Fundraiser

Gualala Arts is gearing up for the second Art Off The Wall party. This unique event was very successful last year raising funds for the Arts Center and providing a festive evening of great food plus the excitement of waiting for your number to be drawn so you could choose either your favorite piece of art or a donated fun experience (such as last year's favorite, a Mystery Dinner hosted by Gualala Arts).

Tickets for the Event

There are two levels of tickets for the event. $30 pays for the reception, including food and beverages. The $60 ticket includes the reception, plus a guarantee that you will leave with an item worth at least $75, that you select when your name is drawn. Once all the numbers have been drawn, the remaining items will be sold for half the valued price, which created quite a frenzy of buying last year! You can purchase tickets online or by calling 800-838-3006. To purchase in person, visit the Gualala Arts Center or the Dolphin Gallery.

Where does the Art (and more) for Art Off The Wall come from?

To make this event a success, we need your donations. Gualala Arts will need at least 110 pieces of art or non-art items valued at more than $75. The committee is looking for art you have made or purchased in the past, have enjoyed, but are now ready to donate. Also popular are items of value that only you can offer, such as dinners, vacation rentals, jewelry, entertainment, etc. All donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.

We're making the donation process easier for you to participate in this year:

Step 1: Call Karen Tracy at the Arts Center (707-884-1138) and make a verbal commitment before May 1. She will ask for your name, phone number, the item and its value.

Step 2: Bring your donation to the Arts Center on May 11, along with the Donation Form (which will be on the web site soon). There will be a section in the Donation Form to describe your donation and tell us about its history. We know every piece we collect has a story to tell, which will make it even more interesting to potential new owners.

If you have any questions about the event or the donation process, please contact the Arts Center or Dave Bower (Committee Chair) at 707-785-9725.
