Children First welcomed its guests to Wonderland during a lively gala at Michael's On East on April 1.Â
The 2023 Fairytale Ball adopted a "Through The Looking Glass" theme that celebrated the many fantastical designs of Alice in Wonderland.
Guests arrived ready for the moment dressed as Mad Hatters, Chesire Cats, Red Queens and more.
The crowd mingled before heading into the transformed Michael's ballroom space for a program that started with an energetic performance from Cirque Vertigo.
 Vice president of philanthropy Jessica Rogers then welcomed the audience as dinner was served. President and CEO Philip Tavill then spoke to the crowd about the many Children First programs for child education and development.
The night ended with dancing to the tunes of the Bay Kings Band.
