    Join us on Wednesday, July 12 and Thursday, July 13, in downtown Bay Harbor for two unforgettable evenings to celebrate the arts.

Ticket-holders will get to select a work of art when their name is called — the order in which art is selected is the luck of the draw! When your name is called, you will run ("dart") and grab your piece of artwork off the wall!
