Moments Matter With Dave Sanderson

As a true-blue serial entrepreneur whose brain is wired for curiosity, innovation and creativity, Clarke loves generating new ventures and designing new ideas for the marketplace. In 1994 Clarke founded Charlotte Arrangements, an event planning and production company, followed by Creatrix Design in 1997, a fabrication and graphic design company. Recognizing the need for a stylish venue in Charlotte’s upcoming arts district of NoDa (North Davidson), Clarke opened CenterStage@NoDa, a 10,000 square foot event venue in 2006. In 2008, wanting to give back to the community, Clarke founded Legacy Charitable Partners, a fundraising and consulting firm for non-profits. Since 2010, all the companies have combined under the flagship, Clarke Allen Events.
