Local food equity nonprofit, The Gleaning Project, will host its tenth annual Empty Bowls fundraiser
GETTYSBURG, MARCH 13, 2023: Local food equity nonprofit, The Gleaning Project, will host its
tenth annual Empty Bowls fundraiser on Friday, April 21, from 4PM-7PM in Plank Gym at
Gettysburg College with the help of our presenting sponsor WellSpan Health. Tickets are on sale
now online at https://thegleaningproject.org/emptybowls
Empty Bowls is a community dinner that aims to raise funds for The Gleaning Project and raise
awareness about food insecurity. The Gleaning Project considers the annual fundraiser to be
one of its most significant—for the financial support it provides to the organization and for the
community that it brings together. The fundraiser draws more than 400 guests each year.
For the ticket price of $20 presale and $25 at the door, guests will enjoy live music by Chuck
Darwin and the Knuckle-Draggers and a meal of soup, bread, beverage and dessert, served in a
handcrafted bowl, which they can then take home as a reminder of those whose bowls remain
empty. Statistics show that of the children and seniors in Adams County, 1 in 5 lack access to
enough food to lead healthy, active lifestyles.
Empty Bowls is made possible each year thanks to the generosity of local artists, restaurants,
bakeries, musicians, and other businesses that donate soup, bread, bowls, and other goods and
services needed to produce the event. Businesses interested contributing to the event with in-
kind donations are encouraged to email TheGleaningProject@gmail.com.
All are invited to attend. To learn more about the event, purchase tickets, or become an event
sponsor, visit https://thegleaningproject.org/emptybowls

Senate unanimously approves Phillips-Hill’s TikTok ban on state devices, networks
Legislation that would prohibit state-owned devices and networks from downloading and using TikTok was approved with unanimous support in the Senate, according to the measure’s sponsor, Sen. Kristin Phillips-Hill (R-York).
Across the nation, Democrats and Republicans have voiced growing concerns about the security and potential manipulation of the popular social media app TikTok. This has led various branches of the federal government and many states to ban the platform on government devices and networks, protecting their assets.
Senate Bill 379 would mandate that all state agencies, departments, and commissions remove the application from state networks and devices. The measure would also require that policies are put in place to prevent application installation, as well as network-based restrictions to prevent its use and access.
“Our nation’s top law enforcement agencies and national defense officials agree that TikTok presents an unacceptable level of cyber espionage, collection of government data and is a threat to personal security,” said Phillips-Hill. “I applaud the bipartisan support on this measure so Pennsylvania’s government can best protect its information technology assets and resources, and, most importantly, ensure that data collected about Pennsylvania taxpayers is safeguarded from foreign adversaries.”
The legislation advances to the House of Representatives for further consideration.

Jeffrey Gabel to retire in 2024
Jeffrey Gabel, the founding executive director of Gettysburg College’s Majestic Theater, announced today that he will retire in early January 2024 after 20 years of dedicated service.
“It has been a privilege and pleasure to build ‘the grandest small-town theater in America,’ which has been so generously supported by the college and the community,” said Gabel. “Twenty years is a long run in show business, and my time at the Majestic has been the most gratifying period of my career. Having an opportunity to help shape this important college and community resource has been incredibly rewarding and a lot of fun! After nearly 40 years in the entertainment business, I’m looking forward to attending shows and movies at the Majestic as a carefree patron.”
“Jeffrey represents the very best of our community,” said Gettysburg College President Bob Iuliano. “His collaboration, his charisma, and his deep commitment to the arts have helped to build the Majestic Theater into all that it is today. Indeed, Jeffrey’s impact over the last two decades, reflected so vividly with a first-of-its-kind film festival this February, will undoubtedly be felt by Gettysburgians for decades to come. We wish him a joyous and well-deserved retirement.”
Gabel joined the Gettysburg College administration in 2003 to lead the theater’s $16.5 million renovation that meticulously restored the 1925 vaudeville and silent movie theater and added a cinema wing with two theaters, an art gallery, café and backstage production wing.
In addition to programming more than 300 concerts by professional artists; raising $21.7 million in community support and establishing a $5.9 million endowment for programming support, Gabel counts producing the recent Ken Burns Film Festival—which drew sold-out audiences from 28 states across the country—among his most important accomplishments. Gabel also serves at the vice chair of the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, and is board member emeritus and past board chair of the League of Historic American Theatres.
Gettysburg College will launch a national search for a new executive director in the spring of 2023. The Majestic Theater at the LeVan Performing Arts Center in downtown Gettysburg is open year-round and presents a diverse lineup of more than 50 live performances by national and international performing artists, as well as a nightly lineup of independent, foreign and classic films. The Majestic also serves as the rehearsal and performance venue for the major instrumental ensembles of the Sunderman Conservatory of Music at Gettysburg College.
