The St. Louis Artists' Guild presents its eleventh annual Collectors Choice, a beloved event for local artists, collectors, and art enthusiasts. With the purchase of one ticket, two people may attend two parties and receive one piece of original artwork valued at $250 or more. Tickets are limited to the number of original artworks donated. All proceeds go towards supporting the St. Louis Artists' Guild and its mission.
On Friday, May 4, 2012 (6pm–9pm) is the Opening Party and Silent Auction for Collectors Choice. Enjoy wine, hors d'oeuvres, and refreshments while viewing artwork donated by local and regional artists. Raffle tickets for Dale Chihuly's Azure Seaform Pair will be available for sale. There will also be a Silent Auction of items donated by local businesses and St. Louis Artists' Guild supporters. The Opening Party is free and open to the public.
The Opening Party will be followed by the Selection Party on Sunday, May 2012, 2012 (11am–3pm). At the Selection Party, names of ticket-holders are chosen at random, and when your name is called, you can select one of the available pieces of artwork and take it home with you! One piece of art is guaranteed for each ticket purchased. You must have a ticket to attend the Selection Party and to select a piece of artwork. Also, raffle tickets for Chihuly's Azure Seaform Pair will be drawn at 2pm.
