For its 2017 gala, Arc Twin Cities adopted the theme "With Our Voices."

Supporters of Arc, including Minnesota Miss Amazing Maggie Erickson, welcomed guests to the Minneapolis Marriott City Center, where they munched, mingled and played fundraising games.

Arc Twin Cities works with people with intellectual and developmental disabilities through advocacy, education and networking.

Proceeds from the event will help establish a forum on advocacy and community leadership training.
