The Moss Landing Marine Labs Quilt Guild has completed another scholarship quilt and are currently selling tickets to win it. The wall hanging measures 71 inches wide x 51 inches high (see photo below). The quilt is a fabric interpretation of Ray Troll's artwork that was developed for N.O.A.A.'s "Green Seas, Blue Seas" campaign, and used with his and N.O.A.A.'s permission.
Tickets are available for $5.00 each or 5 for $20.00.
The drawing will be held at MLML in mid-December, and you do not need to be present to win. Out of town winners must arrange pick up of the quilt from MLML.
Tickets can be purchased two different ways:
1) Come to the Front Desk of the Labs Mon-Fri, 8am-5pm, paying with cash or check.
OR
2) Mail a check, made out to Tower Foundation, along with your contact information, and the Quilt Guild will fill out the ticket stubs for you.
Mail to:
