Greetings!
After a very successful debut event, the Lottery for the Arts is back
for a second year! All artists are invited to submit entries that they wish to
donate for this worthy cause. All proceeds from this event will support
future programs and events at Roseville Arts! Blue Line Gallery. Entry deadline: July 1, 2010
What is Lottery for the Arts?
The Lottery for the Arts is a fund-raising event that provides art
collectors with an opportunity to acquire original works of fine art,
while supporting a non-profit organization and community of artists.
EVERYBODY WINS!
Throughout the evening of the Lottery event, tickets are drawn at
random. As each ticket is called out, the ticket holder chooses a piece
of art from the gallery walls. At the end of the evening, each ticket
holder goes home with a work of art valued $175 and up!
ARTISTS WIN TOO!

Approximately 150 pieces of art will be accepted by a jury of peers and
committee members. Exhibit will be on display at the Blue Line Gallery,

Accepted pieces will appear on Roseville Arts' website starting August
1, 2010. Each piece featured on the website will include: artist name;
title, medium and retail value of artwork; artist statement; and link

favorite artwork and participate in the Lottery. Artists Reception & $250 People's Choice Award:
