September 26 -- Eat Your Art Out, Downtown Crawl for the Arts.
This is one of those rare events where your money goes directly to the local arts programs, restaurants benefit from extra visibility, and you get the huge bonus of a great afternoon sampling the city's best foods with cool people on your "crawl team". I'm tentatively signing up as a Crawl Captain. Contact me directly if interested. Also, the website: http://crawltix.com/ It's $35/ticket, but remember: think of it like a donation (because it is) that you get a huge reward for (because you do... it's really fun & yummy).
