ELEVENTH ANNUAL DINNER WITH THE ARTS BENEFITS THE ST. PETER’S COMMUNITY ARTS ACADEMY’S MISSION OF “ARTS FOR ALL”

The 11th annual Dinner for the Arts (Inside & Outside), St. Peter’s Community Arts Academy’s only major annual fundraiser, will look slightly different.  This year, supporters will come INSIDE the church where they will receive a small charcuterie box and a glass of wine to enjoy as they take in a short, 15-minute performance from one of the Academy’s studios. After the performance, pick up your 4 Course Gourmet Meal to take OUTSIDE and enjoy at your home!  All happening at St. Peter’s, 149 Genesee Street, Geneva, NY 14456 – Sunday, April 24, 2022.

 

This year’s details:

  • Dinner: Meal orders can be placed online https://stpetersarts.org/giving/dinner-with-the-arts/ by choosing a  time slot (4:30pm, 5:30pm or 6:30pm).   There is a choice between a meat or vegetarian option for the main course. All meals are gluten free. You can also add your choice of wine, either Finger Lakes red or Finger Lakes white to your order.

Diners sign up for a specific time to come INSIDE to attend the student showcase and then move into the parish hall to pick up dinner and go OUTSIDE to enjoy at home.
