A stunning 4,000-plus-square-foot home on 3 acres is the grand prize in this year’s Dream Home Raffle sponsored by the Museum of Contemporary Art Santa Barbara

The raffle is underway for the three-bedrooms, three-bath house that has a separate studio unit with an office. From city lights to the Pacific coastline to the Channel Islands, the dream home offers a luxurious way to experience the best of Santa Barbara.

In addition to the home, more than 2,500 prizes are available, as well as early-bird drawing prizes for early ticket purchasers, offering participants a 1 in 20 chance to win.  
 
Since it began in 2005, the raffle has raised more than $6 million, helping host over 100,000 visitors, directly funding free arts programming, and bringing world-class exhibitions to Central Coast audiences and beyond. 

In just the last year, MCASB raffles have impacted community members, including recent winner, Victor Rodriguez-Dominguez.

Asked what it means to know that raffle participation not only means potentially winning a prize but also supporting MCASB, Rodriguez-Dominguez said: “It’s great … helping fund the arts scene for Santa Barbara was the original reason why I started contributing.”  
 
Beyond the dream home or $3 million cash prize, there are numerous options for those who have a winning ticket, including luxury cars, vacations, MacBook Air, cash prizes and more. For a complete list of prizes, visit SBHomeRaffle.com.
 
Tickets must be purchased by Oct. 21. During the raffle, two early-bird drawings will be held. The first winner has already been selected. The second early-bird deadline is Oct. 7.   The grand prize drawing is Nov. 11. Winners will be announced on SBHomeRaffle.com
 
All 45,000 tickets available must be sold for the Dream Home or $3 million prize to be awarded. If fewer than 45,000 tickets are sold, the grand prize will become a cash amount equal to half the net proceeds, not to exceed $3 million.
