Photo shoot at DuPage Children’s Museum

Is your child one of the new faces of DCM?

We’re updating DCM’s look for our marketing materials and will be holding a professional photo shoot in the Museum on Friday, 9/21 and Saturday, 9/22 to capture the spirit of curiosity, creativity and discovery experienced by our young visitors. Candid and portrait-style photos will be taken of children playing with exhibits, learning with their families and engaging with staff and volunteers.

You can help!

Visit the Museum on one or both of those days to participate and become a part of the DCM story. The Museum will be looking fantastic after its annual shutdown for maintenance and upgrades, with new exhibit areas to discover and explore. Come check it out and bring your best smiles!

If you want to participate, join our event on Facebook or Google+. Also, please take a minute to fill out this form to help us have the best photo shoot possible.

We hope to see you there!

World Vision’s AIDS Experience

Probably a little bit of a drive for most of us, but might be worth considering . . .

World Vision Special exhibit coming to your area... World Vision Experience: AIDS
----------------------------------------
Dear Friend,

Can you survive the journey of a child?

The World Vision Experience: AIDS exhibit is coming to your area! We would like to invite you and members of your congregation to join us on this amazing walk-through experience. You will virtually journey to Africa and walk in the steps of a child affected by AIDS.

By partnering with World Vision, you and your church are already doing something to help the poor and oppressed of the world. Now, you can invite your congregation to come see, hear, and experience the life of a child impacted by the greatest humanitarian crisis of our time: AIDS.

This FREE interactive exhibit combines a stirring audio tour with captivating photography, transporting you to the heart of Africa and opening your eyes to the AIDS pandemic. This experience is life-changing and not to be missed!

We invite you to step into Africa through the World Vision Experience: AIDS. Be sure to reserve a time for your tour. (Please allow 20-30 minutes for each Experience tour.)

The audio portion of the Experience contains situations that may be disturbing to children younger than 12. Parental discretion is advised.

Visit www.worldvisionexperience.org to find out more about the tour, preview the stories and more. We look forward to seeing you and your congregation there.

God bless you,

Volunteers are needed (a) the day before the exhibit starts to “set-up,” (b) during public tour hours, and (c) the day after to “break-down.” Volunteer shifts range from 3-5 hours.
