The Johnson County Arts Foundation aims to promote the appreciation and practice of art in Johnson County

Question:

The Johnson County Arts Foundation aims to promote the appreciation and practice of art in Johnson County and surrounding areas. Consistent with this mission, the foundation sponsors a number of exhibitions, conducts art classes, and promotes local artists. The foundation is considering three ways to raise money toward covering its operating expenses.
1. Issue lottery tickets ($50 each) for a “dream art vacation” for two to the “worldfamous museums of London and Paris.” The foundation estimates the cost of the vacation at $6,000.
2. Host a charity dinner, with each ticket costing $100. The caterer has offered the foundation a $2,000 discount of his usual price. Select donors (who are likely to give money in the future as well) would be recognized and honored during the dinner.
3. Conduct a silent auction for works by local artists. The artists and the foundation will share equally in the proceeds. The silent auction is a way for artists to gain exposure and potentially sell more of their work.
