Join us for the Hearth Annual Benefit on October 11, 2022 to raise vital funds for ACRE’s residency program serving emerging artists. Each fall ACRE friends and family gather around a shared meal and look ahead to creating its future together. Hearth is an opportunity to celebrate the community that powers ACRE and to dedicate our resources and efforts to another year of making a significant impact on the practices of emerging artists. 


Hearth 2022 features an online auction that directly supports ACRE's artist community and its programs. 50% of final bids on works by ACRE alumni go directly to each artist and 50% go directly to funding ACRE’s programs. Additional works will support ACRE scholarships and programs directly. An in-person benefit event features food by ACRE Kitchen in collaboration with Bungalow by Middle Brow. A live auction and paddle raises generate funds that directly support the 2023 ACRE Residency Program. 
The benefit event evokes the warmth and conviviality of our residency program and celebrates the key features that make it special.



For 12 years ACRE has offered a space for artists to connect with peers and collaborators, to experiment and learn from one another, and to support each other, as we build the communities that we need to sustain our practices and create our futures together. Join us for ACRE’s biggest night of the year to support this artist-centered mission.
