About: This annual fundraiser is open to OSA families, alumni, supporters, and friends of OSA families. The event includes:
- A delicious dinner buffet from Stonefire Grill, including appetizers, salads, pasta, breads, and desserts to suit many tastes (including some gluten-free options). Dinner will include tri-tip, chicken, pasta marinara, mac & cheese, roasted veggies, Caesar salad, garden salad, and more!
- Ample space to relax, paint, create, and mingle~ and all the materials you need to walk away with something unique and beautiful (or several things!)
- A silent auction with gourmet gifts, experiences, and delights. See our list of donations at the bottom of this page!
- No paper tickets will be given. Reservations are confirmed via PayPal after purchase (or after payment by check or cash).
- An adult must accompany all students/ children.
- PHONES: We ask that all adults model restraint when using phones (out of sight, out of mind) and that NO students have phones in their hands or pockets. Too often, when tech comes out, students become antisocial and distracted by their devices. Please ensure students leave their phones at home or in vehicles. Refer to our phone-free policy this year, which includes OSA events.
COST: RSVP “ticket” includes dinner, dessert, N/A beverages, and art activities.
- Adults and teens 13+ are $45
- Children 12 and under (or light eaters of any age) are $30
- If you have the means, an additional $25 donation is appreciated!
- Ticket purchases will cover our expenses for hosting the event. The BIG support for OSA comes from added donations and the silent auction.
ALL proceeds support One Spark Academy!
- You can purchase your tickets securely online here (via PayPal or with a credit/debit card) or pay directly to One Spark Academy. To pay directly to OSA (checks/ cash preferred; you may also use credit on file), simply fill out the RSVP form and click “pay now” (your RSVP will be recorded), then skip the payment page.
AUCTION ITEMS BELOW!
- If you can’t attend, you can still bid! Browse the items available. There is a market cost and a minimum starting cost. We don’t want to create a “bidding war”. We just want to offer these items to our community, preferably at their market cost. So, offer THE MOST you want to pay, and a staff member will do the bidding for you, starting with the minimum bid. Email the host and include the item number, item name, your name, and your top offer (must meet the minimum starting cost).
- For those attending: Checks preferred! If you attend the event and win a silent auction item, you can pay via check, cash, or on our donation page from your phone. Current OSA family members may take their bid items home even if they haven’t yet donated, and we will follow up. Purchases can also be made via invoice or OSA credit.
