The annual Pinwheel Ball is an evening of entertainment and delicious food in support of the McMahon Ryan mission that takes place every April.

The black-tie event begins with a complimentary cocktail reception, dinner, and entertainment. Throughout the night, attendees can also participate in both silent and live auctions.

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.

Pinwheel Ball 2025 took place on Friday April 4th, 2025 at the Oncenter. We had a successful sold-out event. Thank you to our Presenting Sponsor, Nascentia Health Options, for the generous continued support! Information for our next Pinwheel Ball in April of 2026 coming soon!
