Get ready for the Rally in the Alley! 

Join us on October 25 from 2 PM to 6 PM for the official public kickoff of RAL's ART FOR ALL campaign. We are taking over the newly purchased parking lot right behind the gallery for a "party with a purpose" that you won't want to miss. Every ticket sold helps us raise funds for a brand-new community art center! 

 

Come celebrate our community and the power of art with an unforgettable afternoon of entertainment:

Live Music: Rock out to the incredible sounds of The Band from Misfit Beach.

Great Food: Dig into some delicious, savory BBQ.

Drinks & Libations: Cool off with cold beer and other refreshing beverages.

Bar and Food Cash Only. 

Pure Fun: Connect with neighbors, explore the new space, and support a massive milestone for RAL.

 

Tickets are just $20! Grab yours today, secure your spot, and help us build a creative home for everyone.
