Cookie Canvas

In the Cookie Canvas edible art class, students mix a batch of rollout sugar cookie dough. Then use their creativity to design and paint their own masterpiece on a cookie dough canvas.

Party with a Purpose 

You’re invited to a one-of-a-kind fundraiser for a one-of-a-kind place! Join us for Party with Purpose presented by York Water Company, a 21+ annual fundraising event for Keystone Kidspace, on Saturday, September 28 from 7-10pm.

Party with Purpose is NOT your typical fundraiser. No suits, no heels, no speeches. We mean it. Come ready to PARTY & PLAY! Together, we can MAKE, CREATE, & EXPLORE, just like the kids do.

Start your night off with a signature welcome cocktail, then wander around Keystone Kidspace to explore all the fun:
-Watch glass blowing artists in action (Buy your tickets by 9/1 for your best chance to be one of the few lucky guests who will get to create their own piece during the event's first hour!)
-Groove to an immersive audio/visual experience
-Treat yourself to handmade pretzels, a mega sized candy bar, and locally made ice cream (Old school style, from a truck!)
-Watch a graffiti artist create a mural (Then take a piece home for yourself!)
-Make your own custom prints with a vintage letterpress printer
-PLUS MORE! (If you can believe it)

Tickets are $75 per person (half off for members). Tickets purchased before 9/1 will be entered to win a chance to blow their own glass creation with a professional while at the party! This is your best opportunity to get a spot, so don't delay! Remaining chances will be raffled off in person at the event.

*Members: Don't forget! Members get 50% off Party with Purpose tickets!

*NEW! Due to the popularity of glass blowing last year, we are raffling off the chance to win a Private Dinner and Glass Blowing Experience! One lucky winner will receive a private dinner for 10 prepared by a local chef at Keystone Kidspace at a later date. Each guest will be able to make their own custom blown glass creation.

Raffle entries are $100 each. You may purchase your raffle entry with your Party with Purchase ticket online and/or while at the party. Want to increase your chances of winning this experience? You may purchase as many raffle entries as you'd like!

You do not need to attend Party with Purpose to purchase a raffle entry or be present to win. Winner will be notified via email by Monday, September 30.

Come out and join our growing community in support of Keystone Kidspace's mission! Together we can make a lasting impact within our community.
