HOW IT WORKS
Ticket holders choose from a wide variety of artworks, with a twist: tickets are drawn live, lottery style. When a ticket holder's name is called, they have one minute to pick an artwork corresponding to the dollar value of the ticket. Can’t attend in person? Buy a proxy ticket and we’ll call you to make your selection.

ABOUT THIS YEAR'S FUNDRAISER
Since 1995, we have featured the work of student and professional artists alike in an exhibition and lottery-style draw. Last year, we introduced a new option for artists to keep a percentage of their artwork’s revenue while contributing to UG’s fundraising. Thanks to supporters like you we are able to continue with this format which sustains our fundraising goals while building more reciprocal relationships with artists.
Artwork values are set by the artists at either $100 or $200. Ticket holders will select from the pool of artworks corresponding to the value of their draw ticket(s).
With our return to an in-person event, we’re trying something a little different this year. Our art draw will be split in two with a party in the middle! See the itinerary for this daytime event below.
