Jeffrey Hull donated one of his original watercolors (Sea Fog) valued at $1,750 to the CBAA to raffle off for the Individual Artist Grant. Jeffrey is a long-time Cannon Beach resident of 22 years. He and his wife Carol are owners of the Hull Gallery in Cannon Beach, Oregon.
The CBAA and Jeffrey Hull are hopeful that the Art Raffle will begin a new tradition in Cannon Beach in which a well known artist from the North Coast will donate an original piece of artwork to help fund the long standing Artist Grant Program.
In addition, Cannon Beach jewelry designer Elizabeth Pattison has been commissioned to create a necklace, bracelet and earring set which will be raffled off separately. The proceeds from the jewelry raffle will be used to make gallery improvements, including a custom built jewelry display case.
The raffle tickets will be limited to 1,000 tickets for each drawing and can be purchased for $5 a piece, or 5 tickets for $20. The drawing for both raffles will take place on Saturday, November 7th at the Miniature Shows Reception as part of Cannon Beach's Stormy Weather Arts Festival. Please to purchase tickets!
