Dash Team Highlight: Sam’s Superheroes

Who inspired this team and what makes them EXTRA awesome? Sam has inspired our team. He’s 8 years old, tenacious, outgoing, and hilarious. We’re so blessed to have someone with an extra chromosome in our family. Life is never dull!

What is your favorite part of attending programs and events at GiGi’s Milwaukee? We love attending programming and getting to see our friends. Sam especially likes Art Explosion and Destination Discovery.

What does acceptance mean to you and how do you want to encourage our community (and the world) to be more accepting? Acceptance means inclusion, respect, equality, support, and celebration of diversity. It’s about embracing individuals for who they are, providing equal opportunities, and celebrating their unique contributions to society.

What Programs would you like to see more of at GiGi’s Playhouse Milwaukee? More programming for school-age kiddos!
