Solidarity and Art Merge at Club Nàutic Sa Ràpita

Club Nàutic Sa Ràpita (CNR) joins the solidarity efforts to support the people affected by the DANA in Valencia, and it does so thanks to an initiative jointly launched by the club's board and the artist Pep Molina, a relative of club members who has donated one of his works titled "Mare Nostrum IV" to be raffled.

All the proceeds will be entirely dedicated to helping the affected people in the Valencian community.

To participate in this charitable initiative, interested parties can buy raffle tickets at a symbolic price of 5 euros each, which will be available at the CNR offices and during the next social events organized by the club. The collection of donations will be open until the raffle on December 28.

Each ticket will allow donors to contribute to the campaign and, at the same time, give them the chance to win this valuable piece of art, which measures 65 by 80 cm. With each donation, the CNR will provide a unique ticket with the participation number and a brief message about the destination of the funds: "Donation to help the victims of the DANA in Valencia." The club will record the name and contact of each participant to locate them in case they win.

The raffle of the painting will take place during the Club's Christmas toast, scheduled for December 28. At this public event, all tickets will be placed in a ballot box, and the winner will be selected manually and randomly. The transparency and in-person nature of the raffle will ensure an accessible and participatory event for all. The lucky winner will be announced during the same event, and a special presentation of the work will be organized.

Taking advantage of this initiative, it is worth mentioning that Pep Molina will be in charge of inaugurating the 'Diálogos' space at the CNR. This will be this Saturday, November 16, at 19h in the club's member room. The event will start with a relaxed talk offered by the artist, titled "Trossos de Mar". During the discussion, attendees will have the opportunity to meet this renowned local artist, ask questions and concerns, and discover his entire creative process, from having the idea to rendering it on the canvas with acrylic paint. Starting that day, the club will display some of his works over the following weeks.
