The Palos Verdes Art Center prides itself on being California’s first and oldest house raffle. This is the 21st year it has given away millions in cash and prizes. The money raised continues to fund the Center’s exhibitions and educational programs. Funds raised by the Palos Verdes Dream House Raffle directly support PVAC programs such as Art at Your Fingertips, a school-based outreach program reaching over 7,000 grade school children annually that inspires students to tap into their creative abilities by teaching art skills. The raffle also supports such initiatives as the Art Center’s Special Mornings, which offers special needs students from the Los Angeles Unified School District a chance to explore the world of art through personalized instruction and projects. Funds raised will also benefit The Studio School which teaches year-round art classes to adults and children, and support their annual program of curated exhibitions.
