Fundraiser Gala at Catalyst Café

Catalyst Cafe has outgrown its current venue and needs to raise funds to renovate a new, much larger space so we may serve more community members!

Many local artists, makers, and businesses have genrously donated gifts for our silent auction and Seattle's DJ Ritten has offered their talents to make this gala an event to remember.
