CRAVE micro-granting dinner returns to Alexandria with a new batch of creatives who are looking to make a difference in the community through the arts.
The Torpedo Factory Art Center and Convergence host CRAVE (Creating Resources for Artistic Vision and Engagement) as an opportunity to connect innovators with enthusiasts and supporters to fund new creative community projects. Now in the fourth installment, this program has granted about $3,500 to creative projects in the region.

Attendees hear four short presentations on new arts-related projects. After sharing a lively communal meal, everyone votes. The chosen presenter receives an on-the-spot grant, the sum of which is dependent upon the funds collected through ticket sales and donations. The more people in attendance, the higher the amount will be. Tickets are $15 and available for purchase via torpedofactory.org/crave.
