Sophisticated Society: Through the Looking Glass Gala
On September 28, 300 attendees gathered at the private residence of Forrest and Charlotte Lucas in Carmel for the "Through the Looking Glass Gala," presented by Eye Surgeons of Indiana to benefit the Indiana Blind Children's Foundation. Elegantly dressed attendees enjoyed a racing-themed red carpet event that featured live and silent auctions, a three-course dinner catered by Prime 47, exclusive casino games with prizes, a wine tasting from Daniel's Vineyard, and a bourbon tasting from West Fork Whiskey Co., followed by entertainment from Kentucky's bluegrass band, Bourbon Revival. Keynote speaker Dan Parker, drag racer and the "World's Fastest Blind Man," with a Guinness World Records average speed of 211 MPH, shared his life story and mission. Funds raised support IBCF's mission and provide assistive devices to students receiving eye health services through the IU Low Vision Clinic at the Indiana School for the Blind & Visually Impaired.
