Guests roared into the Big Brothers Big Sisters gala at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Minneapolis dressed in their 1920s best for the charity’s 18th annual fundraiser.

After a cocktail hour and silent auction, dinner and a recognition program for participants and donors followed, with a live auction wrapping up the event.

Proceeds benefit Big Brothers Big Sisters Twin Cities programs, which help children “realize their potential and build their futures” through mentoring relationships.
