Come out and support 1708 Gallery at CultureWorks’ Cultsha Xpo at the Science Museum of Virginia on Saturday, June 23rd from 10 AM – 5 PM!
In preparation for InLight Richmond 2012, we will be hosting an all-day, hands-on lantern-making workshop at Cultsha Xpo. Bring your family and friends and join us! Presented by CultureWorks, Cultsha Xpo offers Richmond the opportunity to learn more about and support area non-profits like 1708 Gallery AT NO EXPENSE TO YOU.
Visitors to Cultsha Xpo will need to register as Cultural Shareholders. If you registered last year your registration is still good. If you have NOT registered and you register online before June 11 and use our code (1708) then CultureWorks will donate $1 to 1708!

$75,000 worth of CultshaBucks will be distributed to each Cultural Shareholders at the event. This is FREE money to use and we hope that you will spend it with 1708 Gallery! At the end of the event, all participating organizations will trade in the CultshaBucks that they have received for REAL dollars.
This is the first in a series of lantern making workshops organized by 1708 Gallery. Workshops will take place throughout the summer and fall in preparation for the Community Lantern Parade that kicks off InLight Richmond 2012. InLight Richmond 2012 will take place at its inaugural location along the broad street arts corridor.
PUT THIS ON YOUR CALENDARS AND REGISTER TODAY. This is an easy way to support 1708 Gallery without pulling out your checkbook and is a great way to learn more about how 1708 Gallery and other area non-profits contribute to the rich cultural life of Richmond.
InLight 2012 and the lantern making workshops and parade are generously sponsored in part by Altria.
