This celebration will include information on all of the nonprofit’s active projects while providing community engagement and connection for families of children with Down syndrome. The free event is open to the public.
Dorian the Dog and Bubble’s the Clown from Golisano Children’s Hospital will be making a special appearance and light refreshments will be available.

Newly released Myles’ Message merchandise will also be available for purchase.
