RALEIGH- You may love getting dressed up, but if you're wearing high heels it's likely your feet are aching by the end of the night. That's one thing you won't have to worry about at the inaugural Black Jedi Charity Sneaker Ball.
The event takes place Friday, September 16th at 7p.m. at the Virginia Dare Ballroom at Sir Walter Apartments located at 400 Fayetteville Street, Suite 101, Raleigh, NC.
