Support the Arts, Win a Cruise

Purchase a raffle ticket to win to a Viking River Cruise, and you’ll benefit the Thalian Association Community Theatre.

Want to win the trip of a lifetime on a luxurious Viking River Cruise for two? Thanks to a raffle benefiting Thalian Association Community Theatre (TACT), some lucky person will win a spectacular vacation for two valued at $9,198, with the choice of 10 eight-day European cruise destinations.

TACT will sell 1,000 raffle tickets for $50 each with all proceeds to support Thalian Youth Theatre and Main Stage Thalian Hall productions.

Tickets are available online at thalian.org, by phone at (910) 251-1788 or at the TACT office in the Hannah Block Historic USO/Community Arts Center now through May 18 or until sold out.

The drawing will be held May 18 at 7 pm at a free cocktail party at the HBHUSO/Community Arts Center hosted by Viking River Cruises and AAA Travel Oleander. In addition to the Viking River Cruise, there will be a drawing for season tickets for TACT Main Stage Thalian Hall shows. The winner need not be present to win. Complete details, rules and regulations are available at thalian.org. Perhaps the most exciting news is that Thalian Association will pay the federal gift tax for the winner!
