With the Seattle International Film Festival in full swing, this Sunday SIFF is awarding Sir Ben Kingsley the 2008 Golden Space Needle for outstanding achievement in acting. After the tribute at the Egyptian Theater, Kingsley will be honored with an “intimate, 50-person dinner” at the Volterra Drawing Room here in Ballard. Unfortunately, the $200-plate event is sold out. Meanwhile, Keith over on the Ballardite Blog says tickets are still available for Volterra’s very popular “dinner and a movie” series — the next two are in July and October, but you better book fast.
