Happy Down Syndrome Awareness Month

October 3, 2012

Happy Down Syndrome Awareness Month! Let’s celebrate! To honor this fabulous month & all of are amazing playhouse friends & families we are posting a picture of a child or adult with Down syndrome each day of October. Together we can spread awareness & reform outdated images with new, beautiful images. So please email us a photo of your loved one to desmoines@gigisplayhouse.org & we will post it to Facebook for all to see!

P.S. have you made it to the ‘i have a voice’ traveling gallery at Jordan Creek yet? It will be on the lower level by Younkers until October 28th, so go check it out!
