Benefiting its “MRED Dollars for Scholars” program, AZCREW is hosting its annual Black & White Affair on Wednesday, Oct. 24, at Pubblico Italian Eatery, 5813 N. 7th St., in Phoenix.

AZCREW is the leading organization for senior-level executive women in the Metro Phoenix real estate field.

The event is from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. It will feature tasting tables of local restaurants, specialty drinks, entertainment, and a silent auction for gift baskets.

Ticket prices are $50 for members; $65 for non-members and members at the door; $500 for 10 tickets; and $20 for Arizona State University MRED students and faculty.

“Over the past 6 years AZCREW has supported Arizona State University’s MRED students by awarding more than 14 scholarships totaling nearly $40,000,” said AZCREW Public Relations/Outreach Committee Co-Chairwoman Lisa Tinnion of Corporate Interior Systems. “We are fortunate to welcome many of these graduates into our AZCREW Network, and into our respective organizations thanks to this continued collaboration with ASU.”

In nine months, the transdisciplinary W. P. Carey Master of Real Estate Development (MRED) program prepares students to lead real estate development projects that are environmentally respectful, socially responsible, and artfully designed. Small class sizes provide opportunities for peer interaction and a number of synthesis projects cover the entire spectrum of development, preparing you for roles throughout the industry.

The MRED program is a transdisciplinary partnership between four highly regarded schools within ASU:

• The W. P. Carey School of Business;

• The Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law;

• The Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts;

• The Del E. Webb School of Construction.
