Bash After Dark

Bash After Dark

ON BROADWAY!

Outreach Ministry Takes Center Stage

Saturday, October 4, 2025 // 6 – 9 PM

On Broadway! is the 2025 theme of our annual signature outreach fundraiser! The Bash After Dark is one of three “Bash” events held each year to bring the St. Stephen’s Community together while raising funds to support our Outreach Ministries and Grants. Every dollar raised thru the Bash is allocated to Outreach. These funds and those given by our generous Bridge Builders form 100% of the annual outreach budget.  In 2025, our Outreach Ministry budget exceeds $100,000, and with support from people just like YOU, our goal is to sustain and expand this assistance in 2026!

EVENT ACTIVITIES

The Bash After Dark is a week-long event that starts with the launch of our online auction and culminates at our live event on Saturday night. This one-night-only event  will bring the excitement of Broadway to life with live entertainment, incredible food, interactive games, and a live auction — all in support of Outreach Ministries that make a real difference.

Here’s the schedule for the week:

  • Monday, September 29: The online auction goes live at 10:00 AM
  • Saturday, October 4: The Bash After Dark live event is held from 6:00-9:00 PM
  • Sunday, October 5: The online auction closes at 12:00 PM
