Tigers on the Prowl

Tigers on the Prowl is a volunteer-run organization that showcases the work of artists and provides a platform for local charities to raise awareness and funds. They have raised over $600,000 for local charities to date. “Seeing the artwork that our artists have produced displayed around town makes me proud,” Chuck Crews, founder and board member, says, “as does seeing the money that we’ve raised help the participating charities.” The event now includes 500 attendees, a live auction of each piece of art that highlights the artist and their process in developing the piece, a dinner, and a silent auction, which is new. The organization’s goals are to continue to improve their event, find new charities to help each year, and to engage a wider group of local artists. This year’s auction and dinner benefitted Rainbow House, Lutheran Family and Children’s Services, Lizzy’s Walk of Faith, City of Refuge, and the Mary Lee Johnston Community Learning Center.
