Cave Creek Museum spaghetti western event
November 7, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm MST
The Cave Creek Museum will host its annual spaghetti western fundraiser on November 7, 2023 from 4-7 PM at Harold’s Corral, which is located at 6895 E. Cave Creek Road in Cave Creek, Ariz. This year’s theme is Spaghetti Western: Dinner with a side of history.
“This fun event, which is now in its ninth year, features a great auction, raffle and a filling spaghetti dinner with sides,” says Evelyn Johnson, the museum’s executive director. “The theme of the western event focuses on the diverse and fascinating history of the foothills region.”
Guests will enjoy cowboy serenades and musical tributes by local Kevin Causey, a chance to win a fistful of dollars and special appearances and surprises. The museum experienced sellout attendance in 2022 and exceeded its fundraising goals. Proceeds from the event will provide funding For Cave Creek Museum’s multigenerational education programming, academic research and engaging interpretive exhibits.
“Just like any wild west character in a classic movie western, we are keeping the event details close to the chest,” says event chair Buck Columna. “However, folks can expect an evening of good company, great grub and authentic western hospitality.”
The cost is $28 for adults before October 10 ($30 after this date) and $10 for children ages 5-11. Children under 5 eat free. Dinner includes spaghetti and meatballs, fresh garden salad, garlic bread and iced tea.
The event is open to the public. Tickets can be purchased at cavecreekmuseum.org or by calling 480.488.2764.
The 53-year-old museum’s mission is to preserve the artifacts of the prehistory, history, culture and legacy of the Cave Creek Mining District and the Cave Creek/Carefree foothills area through education, research, and interpretive exhibits. The Cave Creek Museum is located at 6140 E. Skyline Drive in Cave Creek, Ariz., 480.488.2764. Open October through May.
