The Pinwheel Ball

The 16th annual Pinwheel Ball will take place on Friday, April 17th, 2026 at the Oncenter. It will be an evening of entertainment and delicious food in support of the McMahon Ryan Child Advocacy Center mission. The black-tie event begins with a complimentary cocktail reception, dinner, and live entertainment by the band, Atlas! Throughout the night, attendees can also participate in both silent and live auctions and raffles!

We close the night with the signature McMahon Ryan Child Advocacy Center Pinwheel Auction, which contributes to our efforts to end child abuse in Onondaga County.

The Pinwheel Ball is a part of our observance of the Child Abuse Prevention Month of April, when we ask the community to Go Blue 4 Kids.
