Franciscan Spirituality Center ART DASH
March 24, 2022 @ 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm CDT
Tickets are on sale for this signature event. Our fifth annual Art Dash will take place at The Cargill Room at The Waterfront Restaurant and Tavern (5:30 p.m. cocktail hour; 6:30 p.m. Dash promptly begins).
Visit www.FSCenter.org/artdash for ticket information and a look at the art.
ABOUT THE EVENT: Art Dash brings together local artists and community members in a celebration of creativity, beauty and connection. Everyone who buys a $100 ticket is guaranteed a piece of art–which one depends on how fast you can claim it. All of the art is worth at least $100, and the proceeds of this event support our ever-increasingly vital mission, so you can’t lose!
Where else can you get a piece of original art as a thank you for your $100 donation?
HOW IT WORKS: A $100 ticket buys you a spot in the Dash. After a preview of the art, we’ll start randomly drawing names, three at a time. As your name is called, you’ll dash to the piece you want. If someone claims your top pick before you do, you’ll need to make a different choice. Depending on when your name is called and what pieces are available at that point, you may get your top pick or you may need to select a second or third choice.
Even though these are serious works of art, the Dash itself is meant to be a lighthearted competition. Plus, it’s all for a good cause, so we recommend you have a game plan and an attitude of openness and surprise. You are bound to end up with the piece of art you were meant to have!
The evening also will include a wine pull and caricatures by Tommy Orrico.
If you’d like to support the Franciscan Spirituality Center but are not interested in receiving artwork, please consider purchasing a Spectator ticket (separate registration). As a thank you for your $50 donation, we’ll invite you to the gathering to watch the fun, cheer on your favorite “dashers” and artists, and have a chance to win door prizes. The FSC is a 501(3)c non-profit organization; your donation for a Spectator ticket is tax deductible as allowed by law.
