Eagle Rock Center For the Arts to Host NELAart Microgrant Fundraiser Sunday

The will be home to NELAart's second Microgrant fundraiser on Sunday, March 18 at 7 p.m. 

Postponed in February due to fears that the Academy Awards would sap attendance, this month's fundraiser will welcome four competitors from the world of arts and entertainment who will vie for the pot of the evening's admission fees. 

"$10 buys a ticket for dessert bites from , Little Flower, Vegan Jam Bakery, and New York Snow," said spokesperson Janet Dodson. "But the most important part is the vote. Patrons vote on four presentations by emerging artists. The crowd favorite takes home the cash from the admissions: instant micro-grant, and collective community support for the arts. All that and treats too."

This month's presenters include World Sounds, a reality TV travel show about world music;  McGroarty Music Summer School,  an 8-week summer music course for elementary age students; A Project for Disastrous Success,  a performance piece that explores cause-and effect and the processes of observation and reaction, and Artists for Action,  a project through which “Artivists” present positive and peaceful approaches toward resolving cultural tension.
