CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) The Clarksville Association of Realtors® (CAR) will host their 11th annual FUEL fundraiser, Appetite For Art, on Saturday, April 28, 2018.
This event will include a “farm to table” dinner at The Ruby Cora (2300 Gunn Road, Adams, TN). The dinner will include food from local farmers and vendors, and will showcase artwork from Montgomery County students.
The artwork submitted will be grouped into four categories: kindergarten – 2nd grade, 3rd – 5th grade, middle school, and high school. The winning school from each category will receive $200 for their art programs. Artwork from the winners will be part of a live auction, and other submitted artwork will be displayed on different items and available for purchase at the event. There will also be a silent auction which includes various goods and services. The event will be hosted by Q108’s Ryan and Gretchen from the Ryan and Gretchen Show.
“The FUEL program is very special to CAR, our Realtors and Affiliate Partners,” said Anastasia Williams, 2018 Chair of CAR’s Helping Hands Committee. “We are so happy to help children in our own town who need assistance.”
FUEL is a food subsidization program designed to feed Clarksville-Montgomery County school children through the weekend whose only food source may be the meals they are receiving at school. Individually wrapped items are discreetly made available to the qualifying students each Friday. The program is funded solely through donations and local fundraising efforts and operated through local churches and civic organizations.
CAR, with the help of their Realtor Members and Affiliates have raised over $97,000 for FUEL Food ministries over the past 11 years.
Tickets ($35 each/$50 couple) will be available the day of the event, but attendees are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance by visiting www.clarksvilleaor.com/art, or by emailing info@Clarksvilleaor.com.
