WINNERS HAVE BEEN ANNOUNCED SEE BELOW!

Melt Gallery is delighted to bring back our annual Holiday Raffle!
And this year, we’re making it bigger and more meaningful than ever.

In addition to a piece donated by Melt Gallery owner/encaustic artist/curator Susan Wallis, six Melt artists have generously contributed artwork to this year’s raffle. These artists, who are in more advanced stages of their practices, understand the importance of encouragement, support, and exhibition opportunities for young artists at the very beginning of their creative careers.

All proceeds will go toward supporting a young artist in our community, giving them the opportunity to showcase their work in either the FOCUS or FORMAT gallery at Melt Gallery for 1 month in 2026. Our team will mentor them through presentation, marketing, and pricing, providing a safe and supportive environment to help them shine. Application details will be available online in January 2026.

Tickets $10 each or 3 for $25.

One winner per artwork will be selected on Saturday, December 20th. Seven winners will be selected, each receiving one artwork. Each artwork will be randomly assigned to a winner.

Tickets available in person at the gallery or purchase below.
