Children First granted many wishes April 7 at Michael’s On East.
The nonprofit helps at-risk children through Head Start educational programs and their parents through support groups and parenting courses.
The Fairytale Ball channeled “Aladdin” with its Middle Eastern decor and “If You Had Three Wishes” theme. Many guests wore sparkly gold, matching the decor in the vibrant ballroom. Suzy Kalin tattooed henna on those looking to step up their outfits and lean into the theme.
Eventgoers mingled in the atrium for cocktail hour, had dinner in the ballroom and danced to the sounds of Brandon Williams and the Bay-kings Band to end the night.
Co-Chairs David and Donna Koffman, Jacqueline and Lacy Ray, Jr. and Katherine and Frank Martucci
