Soup for You 2023

The Vine Arts Center Member Show “Rising From The Ashes” closes Saturday, Oct. 21 with a fundraiser for the Soup For You Café. We have done this fundraiser for a few years with artwork donated by community artists. This year we are expanding to a silent auction. from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm at the Vine Arts Gallery, 2637 27th Ave S. Minneapolis.

As well as the silent auction and the sale of donated art, there will be music from The Grateful Fed, house band at the Café and complimentary portraits by Anita White.

We welcome donations for the silent auction. Contact info@vineartscenter.org to make arrangements. In addition to items for the silent auction, the Soup For You Café can always use large grocery bags with handles.

Soup For You Café offers daily lunch between noon and 1 PM. On Wednesdays they offer groceries.  It is located in the basement of Bethany Lutheran Church at 2511 Franklin Ave. in the Seward neighborhood. During the Covid 19 lockdown they continued to feed people, handing out food from the door. They have served over 120,000 meals. They are also collecting warm clothes to distribute as the temperature drops.
