63rd Annual Spaghetti Dinner
We Did It!
63rd Annual Spaghetti Dinner
Someday We’ll Be Together
Thank you!
Your generosity at this year's dinner helped us to raise nearly
$10,000 for the Ballard Performing Arts students.
~90 dinner kits were purchased by families.
~ 56 dinners went to the Ballard Food Bank
~ 40 Bottles of wine were grabbed
~ 30 Desserts dashed off
And, $3,000 was donated during the show through the text-to-give app.
We cannot possibly do what WE do without support from YOU.
Thank you.
The Spaghetti Dinner 2022 Team
The Spaghetti Dinner performance will be posted to our YouTube channel
in the next few days to be shared and enjoyed.

About the Spaghetti Dinner
For 63 years the Spaghetti dinner has been a time for the community to come together in one place, share a meal, and best of all, listen to all our fabulous groups!
Ain’t no mountain high enough to keep this party from happening! Pulling off the full meal deal offered in the past is not possible this year, but we will be supplying Food For the Soul and put on a show worth remembering.
“Some day, We’ll be Together,” is our anthem and we are planning to livestream the event on February 12th from school All Night Long with the students, while families enjoy spaghetti meal kits at home and enjoy the show on YouTube. You will find yourself Dancing in the Streets!
Just like our fall concerts, the performances will be live-streamed (and available for replay) on YouTube - all live! Thanks to our fall fundraising, this show is free to see.

Donate a meal to the Ballard Food Bank
There are some families who want to contribute and participate by purchasing a dinner kit to donate to the food bank. That option is available.
Mix and match – Donate a meal and pick up dessert and/or wine.
All options and details to purchase are on our website
Volunteer to Help with Spaghetti Dinner
Sign Up to Volunteer for Assembling and Distributing Meal Kits
We need help assembling all the food donations into 200 to-go meal kits on the morning of February 12. Later on the same day, we need help distributing the kits to families for pick up from noon to 2 pm at school. Both are fun opportunities to meet other parents and families in the program. Students can earn Service Learning Hours for helping at the performances, for meal kit assembly and/or distribution.
Sign Up to Bake or Purchase and Donate a Dessert
We are reimagining the bake sale of past Spaghetti dinners and morphing it into a special “Dash over for a Dessert” add-on.
We need freshly baked desserts or purchased fresh baked items ready for pick up.
Donate Wine
You can still drop off wine donations for the add-on wine option Jan. 22 between 9:30 and 11 in the north parking lot of BHS. Please use the sign up genius link to let us know you will be donating wine. If you can’t make it on Saturday, you can also make arrangements with Kris Bulson for pick up. We are hoping for about 60 bottles of wine (red preferred) in all price ranges over $10/bottle. Contact Kris at bpabfundraising@gmail.com
