Winner Takes All at PUNCH Gallery's Fundraiser

During this time of slow economic recovery, it seems like every week we're asked to give to countless good causes. Renew your support for your favorite non-profit, buy a copy of Real Change, attend an over-priced fundraiser, but know it's for the kids, the veterans, or another worthy group. And when we say yes, we frequently receive not much more than a tax-deductible email, and maybe a thank-you postcard.

Sure, we feel good about supporting community services (we're humans, after all), but every once in awhile it’s nice to get something back when you give back. But there are people who understand the persuasive power a token for the effort. Which is why, for the third year, PUNCH Gallery in Pioneer Square, is holding their unconventional (and awesome) fundraiser - Winner Takes All.

PUNCH is going all lotto on us again, by offering 500 tickets at $10 (until October 15, or until they run out of tickets), in exchange for a chance to win all the art currently hanging in their non-commercial/artist co-op style gallery, which is one of our favorite stops during the first Thursday art walks. Yup, all the art. In your house. Or to give away as gifts. It's all yours.

And one very lucky ticket holder will win this.

The best part? You don't even have to go to anything. No wining, no dining--just buy a lottery ticket that you know goes for a good cause, and you may win a veritable museum full of art.

Yup, this might be one of the awesomest arts fundraisers, and this year, you can get in on it. We think we may have already bought the winning ticket but just in case why not join us in the lottery action -you’ll feel great about supporting the interesting programming at PUNCH. The lucky winner will be announced at 5:00 p.m. on October 16, at Seattle Metropolitan Credit Union's Co-opalooza, in the Fisher Pavilion.
