Make-A-Wish Missouri & Kansas – Bubble Ball for Wishes Sake

Bubble Ball for Wishes Sake, a benefit for Make-A-Wish Missouri & Kansas, was held recently at The Abbott Event Space. The second annual event featured a runway show and an art gallery exhibit designed by local artists who used bubble wrap to recreate Our Town’s Wish Kids’ favorite movie characters. More than $275,000 was raised to grant wishes to local children with critical illnesses.
