In 2019, Touchstones® received a bequest from the estate of Dr. Elliott Zuckerman, a long-time friend of the organization. This gift included more than 188 of Elliott’s own works, given to be used and sold in support of Touchstones’ discussion-based educational programs with children and adults around the world.

This raffle fulfills Elliott’s wishes by selling chances on two original paintings to generate essential support for Touchstones training and program materials where there is little or no funding available. The Touchstones staff has delivered workshops and curricula for 20+ years to thousands of educators, youth, and adults in schools and community centers in high-poverty areas and detention centers and prisons–often entirely for free. Every ticket you buy advances our commitment to developing and providing educational programming that engages and empowers all people!

We are selling 500 tickets total for each painting at $25/ticket (5 tickets for $100, 10 for $200, etc). There is no limit to the number of tickets you may purchase. Thank you for participating in this exciting and fun opportunity to support Touchstones, as we honor Elliott’s beautiful gift and vision! The drawing will take place on August 19th and be streamed live on Facebook.
