Dust off your wizard's cloak and enter an exciting world of magical creatures, powerful wizards, and mysterious spells!
Get ready to have the time of your life, meet new friends and discover your inner, magical wizard! Frogwarts School of Wizardry will take campers on a journey through science, math, reading, writing, and acting. All attendees, staff included, take on a role-playing wizard persona.
A magical aspect of Frogwarts which sets it apart from other summer camps, is the development of a story, dramatized in real-time by campers, staff, and guest artists. Students use their critical thinking, imagination, and role-play skills in the drama, which is designed to guide them through a process of questioning good versus evil, and right versus wrong, to the triumph of compassion, creativity, courage, justice, and fun!
Frogwarts enriches the lives of youth by providing a memorable experience that cultivates their creative, emotional, and imaginative intelligences. In addition to critical thinking and literacy skills, the program provides experiential training in empathy and compassion through drama.

About EVERY BRILLIANT THING
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
**GMETC and Little Bird Creativity Co. Present **Every Brilliant Thing
An Interactive, Heartfelt Celebration of Life, Hope, and Human Connection
DUBUQUE, IA / SHULLSBURG, WI — GMETC and Little Bird Creativity Co. are proud to present Every Brilliant Thing by Duncan Macmillan with Jonny Donahoe, featuring acclaimed theatre educator, storyteller, and performer Amy Ressler.
Part theater, part conversation, and entirely unforgettable, Every Brilliant Thing is a deeply moving and surprisingly funny play about finding joy in life's smallest moments. When a child's mother struggles with depression, the child begins making a list of every brilliant thing worth living for: ice cream, staying up past your bedtime, laughing so hard milk comes out of your nose, and thousands more. As the list grows over a lifetime, the story becomes a powerful exploration of love, loss, resilience, and the extraordinary beauty of ordinary things.
This internationally celebrated production has captivated audiences around the world with its warmth, humor, and unique audience participation. No two performances are exactly alike, making each evening a one-of-a-kind theatrical experience.
Amy Ressler brings more than three decades of experience as an actor, educator, director, storyteller, and theatre artist to this intimate production. Known throughout the region for her work in theatre education and community engagement, Ressler invites audiences into a shared experience that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.
