What should I wear?
Feel free to wear whatever makes you feel great! Many attendees will take this opportunity to dress up. Most importantly, come as your authentic, wonderful self.

Where do I park?
Southside Commons is located in the former Southside Church of Christ building in the historic Columbia City neighborhood of South Seattle. The Commons is situated one block from downtown Columbia City and two blocks from the Columbia Light Rail Station. Residential parking is available; however, it is encouraged to take the light rail to the Columbia City Light Rail Station. 

What is on the menu?
De la Soil will be setting the seasonal spring menu in late March. You will enjoy farm-to-table bites that will be sure to satiate your senses! Delicious gluten-free and vegan offerings will most definitely be available.

Can I sit with my friends?
Traditional seating will be limited to accommodate the interactive Crowdsource Choir experience. A variety of options will be available, including gathering tables, seat clusters, and cozy spaces designed for comfort and connection. This setup will ensure everyone can fully enjoy the evening’s communal atmosphere.

Can I bring my children to this event?
We’re excited to offer this event as a time for adults and parents in our community to connect in a child-free environment. As this is a fundraising event with alcohol being served, we hope to create a space where adults can relax, enjoy themselves, and focus on meaningful connections. Thank you for understanding! Please reach out to Advancement Circle for a list of Bright Water alumni who offer excellent babysitting services.

Can I invite non-Bright Water families to attend?
Absolutely! While this event is a Bright Water fundraiser, the joy and connection of singing together is something everyone can enjoy. It’s a wonderful opportunity to introduce friends to the Bright Water community while sharing a truly unique and memorable evening. 

What impact will my donation make?
By attending the event and participating in the various fundraising activities, you’ll help us reach our goal of raising $50,000. These vital funds play a crucial role in strengthening our school’s budget, providing professional development opportunities for our faculty and staff, supporting field trips, and ensuring access to essential school materials. Your support directly enriches the Bright Water community!
