Upcoming Schedule of Events (Chicago Style) Good Morning, GiGi's Chicago Supporters.   How many times have you driven, walked or biked by our location, looked at our window stickers and thought, "My kid (or other loved one with Down syndrome) should be up there!" Well, here's your chance to make it happen. Announcing our First Annual Window Decal Sale! We're selling spaces on three of our windows (2 on Lincoln and 1 on Damen) to appear in a square mosaic.. (See the example to the right.) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 The window sticker will make its debut in October, and photos are guaranteed to stay up for a year. We have 27 spaces (1.5 ft. x 2 ft.) available for $250 each (which includes a photo session at the Playhouse to happen in September). You can purchase two adjacent spaces for a full body-sized image.  Single spaces will be head/torso shots only.   Hurry, we expect these to go fast. Space and placement (Lincoln or Damen) will be determined on a first-come, first served basis. Sale ends Aug. 31 or whenever all 27 spaces are gone, whichever comes first.

The interest and enthusiasm during and prior to the session was great (so much so that we're considering another session for the fall). We'd also like to specially thank our presenter for the evening, Patrick Black.   For those who weren't able to attend, Patrick is making the presentation available through this website, and much of the information he presented can also be found on his blog.     GiGi's Playhouse  Join our mailing list!!
