Help support Sprout and our mission of sustaining local emerging artists by participating in The Seattle Foundation's BigGive Event. On May 2nd, from midnight to midnight (Pacific Time), your donation made to Sprout through the BigGive event will be partially matched thanks to The Seattle Foundation and other corporate sponsors.
Sprout is entirely volunteer-run and community-funded, so all revenues go directly to supporting our dinner events and funding Sprout grantees. On this one day, you have the opportunity to make your dollar go further by donating to Sprout through BigGive.
Please click on the following link to read our profile on the Seattle Foundation website. Donations will only be accepted for BigGive on May 2nd, so mark your calendars!

Sprout on Seattle's NBC affiliate, King 5:
What is Sprout?
Participants will pay a sliding-scale entrance fee for which they will receive a home-made dinner and a ballot. The dinner is a delicious selection of food from local farms and markets. Diners will vote on a variety of proposed artist projects. At the end of dinner, the artist whose proposal receives the most votes will be awarded funds collected at the door. The work will then be presented during the next Sprout. Artistic genres of all kinds are accepted and are encouraged to be works that are sustainable, local and forward-thinking.
This project builds off of the many inspiring projects around the country. Find out more at sundaysoup.org. Eat well and fund often!
Sprout advisory committee is Sarah Steininger, Kristen Hoskins, Benjamin K. Shown, Kris Martin, and Stephen Jeong.
