Solution Smithing: Defining and Measuring Impact for Social Enterprises

​Have you ever grappled with how to quantify your work/organization's impact into relevant metrics and stories that gain you new supporters, and encourage existing ones to help you expand your reach? In certain contexts, securing support depends on your ability to not only measure your impact, but to be able to tell a compelling story about it. Join us for this group brainstorm as we talk through Art on the Ave's mission, goals, and their future approach to productive metrics. Everyone will leave having learned something new.

​For this iteration of Solution Smithing, Art on the Ave NYC is advancing a challenge they’re working through, and we're bringing together an outstanding group of people (you!) for an action-oriented discussion and collective problem-solving. Not a panel, nor a pitch, but a 'doing' gathering.

​Please RSVP.

​​What is Solution Smithing? For this gathering series, an organization or individual advances a solution they’re working through, and we bring together an outstanding group of people for an action-oriented discussion to engage in collective problem-solving. 

​​The event will consist of a walkthrough of Art on the Ave's exhibition at Anew Café & Goods, followed by an in-depth brainstorm on the topic. We'll start promptly at 5:20pm. wrap up by 6:30pm, followed by mingling until 7pm.

​Art on the Ave NYC, is a New York–based nonprofit that transforms vacant storefronts and underused spaces into vibrant, community-centered art hubs.

​​Anew is a gathering space and discovery center for the social impact community.
