The Friends of Carnegie Public Library would like to extend an enormous thank you to the citizens and business' of the City of Las Vegas for their overwhelming support of our annual raffle fundraiser.  This year, we had five amazing art pieces, generously donated by local artists, that will each make a beautiful addition to the homes of our lucky winners.

Tim Dodge will be taking home the grand prize, a gorgeous watercolor by Susan West, beautifully framed by Art & Stones.  The remaining winners, Augustine Romero, Virginia Apodaca, and Patricia Smith will have their pick from pieces by Michelle and Dan Capaccio, Nancy Leippe, and Gene Gurule.

The Friends of Carnegie Public Library would not be able to serve the Library without the support and generosity of the Las Vegas community. Thanks so much!


Stay Tuned for Spring Programming!
