The third annual WISH white party was held at Michael’s On East on Friday, Sept. 16. Attendees enjoyed drinks, hors d'oeuvres and a popcorn bar as well as dancers and a sword swallowing performance. All the funds raised through donations, ticket sales and raffles benefited Make-A-Wish Central and Northern Florida.
