The Mainstreet restaurant gave the arts center a $636 check, which will be used to help support the center’s art programs.

The check is the result of a fundraiser that took place January through March. Throughout the period, Aji donated $1 to the arts center whenever a customer ordered an entrée and a beverage.

“We’re really appreciative of both the donation—but also the awareness building,” said Amanda Birnstengel, director of the Hopkins Center for the Arts. “It does show community support.”
