The Fairy Tale Ball proved to be an amazing event once again for the Southeastern Connecticut Children's Museum.

Special thanks to the Connecticut Caterers Association for their collaborative efforts to create and execute a delicious menu. It was inspiring to see such a talented team come together.

A Thyme to Cook • Coastal Gourmet

Gourmet Galley • La Cuisine

Jordan Caterers • Matthew's Catering

Perfect Parties • Tallulah's Catering

There is unbelievable creativity that surrounds us. You can see all the AMAZING Fairy Tale inspired tables on our Facebook page.

Here are a few photos of our "trash table!" Every single thing was recycled or re-purposed for this event. Thank you to all of our staff for their contributions!

.......and here is a peek of behind-the-scenes during the dessert prep. Thanks Bill for your version of Charlotte's Web: Grand Marnier Chocolate "Charlotte" with Spun Sugar Web and Fairy Godmother's Wand!
