The annual Lovexotic fundraiser this Saturday is a celebration of world cultures to benefit Family by Choice, a worthy local nonprofit that provides adoption services for LGBT couples, single adults, and other families throughout Texas.

This year's event takes place upstairs at the Clay Pit, and will feature specially-designed cocktails by mixologists Mirjana "Mindy" Kucan, Bill Norris of Fino (check out our Informed Drinker column about Norris), and the folks behind Tipsy Texan. The event
is built around three food-and-cocktail stations, each representing a different region of the world—Asian, European, and Latin American. Participating restaurants include Frank, Kenichi, Rio's Brazilian Foods and more—we've reposted the food and drink pairings after the jump.

DJ Architektur and the Sabaya Bellydancing Collective will be providing entertainment throughout the evening, while local artist David Sweeney will be exhibiting some of his mixed-media pieces, the partial proceeds of which will go towards Family by Choice.

Capping the evening's festivities is a special raffle for a pretty amazing prize package that includes a two-night "staycation" at the Kimber Modern Hotel (valid Sun.-Thurs.), a $100 gift certificate to Roy's, and a pair of 5-course meals from Wink. Raffle tickets are available online, and the winner doesn't need to be present during the actual drawing. For a chance to win a few raffle tickets (which, in turn, will enable you to participate in the raffle drawing), fill out the form after the jump.
