In an effort to raise funds for the Performing Arts Association a dinner entertainment will once again be held next month in St. Joseph.

The Performing Arts Association’s “Random Acts Dinner, Act III” will be held Friday, June 16 at 6:30 p.m. This year the event will be held at the Pony Express Museum at 914 Penn Street.

According to a news release, following the success of the first two Random Acts Dinner held last season, PAA has decided to resurrect the fundraiser with a new venue, new acts and a new menu provided by Spanky and Buckwheat’s and a cash bar provided by the Tiger’s Den. Upon arrival, guests will be encouraged to mingle during the social hour while being entertained by local performers. Following each course, performers will entertain the guests with various forms of talents.

In the past, some of the acts that have performed were a magician, a balloon twister, a fire dance team, a jazz guitarist and several vocal and dance performers.

Proceeds from this event will help benefit the Performing Arts Association of St. Joseph and provide funds to continue to ensure nationally touring shows can be brought to the historic Missouri Theatre. The cost of the meal with included entertainment is $30 per person or $50 per couple. The cash bar is separate and not included in the price.

Reservations can be made by phone at the Saint Joseph Performing Arts Association, 816-279-1225 or at the office, 719 Edmond Street.
