2023 All-Star Evening is One for the Books!

While another incredible night of celebration has come and gone, the impact that the 2023 All-Star Evening will have on ACES and our students is long-lasting.

On May 18th, Minnesota’s businesses, education, and community leaders came together at The Fillmore Minneapolis to make this year’s event the largest and most successful in ACES history! Nearly 500 people filled the room to show their support and learn about the important need for ACES programming. We couldn’t be more grateful for the way our community showed up.

Guests enjoyed delicious food and drink, bid on fabulous live and silent auctions, and took in a star-studded program that included performances from internationally acclaimed singer Jearlyn Steele, remarks from TV personality and education advocate Michelle Young, and a celebration of this year’s Locked In Award recipient, WNBA superstar and Minnesota hero Lindsay Whalen.

All funds raised from the All-Star Evening directly support ACES classrooms and help provide a unique, hands-on curriculum for our students. Our work to close the academic opportunity gap in Minnesota is possible thanks to the generosity and partnership of our supporters and community. Thank you to the sponsors, team partners, guests, volunteers, and generous supporters for making this year’s All-Star Evening so special. We can’t wait to see you in 2024 for ACES’s 30th anniversary celebration! #ACESAllStar23
