What is Collector's
Draw?
This is one of HALs premier events and is our major fundraiser of the
year. HAL solicits
original art from local Tennessee Valley Artists. The art
may range in value from $150 - $300. This art will be on
exhibit at HAL during the month of January.
The day after Thanksgiving,
tickets go on sale for the art. The ticket price is $125. Many people like to give
these tickets for Christmas presents! There will only be a limited number of
tickets, and they will sell out quickly.
Late in
January, there will be a
reception at HAL for the ticket holders and artists. On February
21st, the
Draw will be held, at the North Hall of the Von Braun Center!
All the tickets go into a drum, and
Steve Johnson of WHNT will draw them out one by one. The first person drawn will get
their pick from the art. The second will get their pick from the remaining
art. And so on till all the tickets are drawn. It makes for quite an
entertaining afternoon!
