About
Step right up and join us for the 12th annual Dream Big Charity Gala. This year's circus theme is sure to impress and kicks off promptly at 7:00pm! Guests will enjoy live music provided by NWA's own Boom Kinetic, hors d'oeuvres from area restaurants, adult beverages featuring 2 signature cocktails, carnival games featuring a cigar dart throw by One Eyed Jacks and wine ring toss by Sassafras Springs Vineyard, and a program about the Children's Safety Center.
Volunteers and guests are encouraged to wear red, white and black cocktail attire.
The Dream Big Charity Gala is the signature fundraiser for the Children's Safety Center of Washington County. The CSC helps coordinate child abuse investigations by providing advocacy, forensic interviewing, forensic medical exams, and mental health therapy. All of these services are provided free of charge to child abuse victims and their families. In 2018, the CSC provided services to 838 alleged child abuse victims. Since we opened in 1997, we have served over 11,000 children in Northwest Arkansas.
