For My Dad

Simply Put- TO MY DAD

For all the times I’ve fallen and you have picked me up

For all the times I’ve failed and you have held my hand

For all the times I’ve succeeded and you have shown your pride

For all of my achievements that would not have happened without your guidance

For all the mistakes you’ve withstood without ridicule of me

For the times you watched me struggle and let me find my own way

For all the struggles that overwhelmed me and you were there for me

For helping me become the person I’ve always wanted to be

For watching me grow and change and adapt while loving me as I am

For the joy and love and hope you bring into my life every day

For being my hero.

For these things and for so many more -Thank You Dad.

What a great idea for all dad’s this Father’s Day!  Much better than a tie. Or socks. Or motor oil.

For Immediate Release:

Pittsburgh- The ToonSeum Celebrates Father’s Day.

Dads are free on Fathers day!

Looking for the perfect place for dad this Father’s Day? Show your dad that he is a real superhero and let him celebrate his inner child with the ToonSeum’s new exhibit Superheroes: Icons and Origins.

In celebration of Father’s Day, Sunday June 19th dads will be admitted free to the ToonSeum, along with kids under 13. Everyone else is just $4. Dad’s also will a receive a special ToonSeum gift.

“The ToonSeum is excited to celebrate dads alongside such caped crusaders as Batman and Superman.” Said ToonSeum Executive Director Joe Wos. “For many of us, our dad is our very first superhero and often the one who has introduced to the world of comics.”

The exhibit highlights the exciting history of the superhero genre, offering guests an up-close look at rare original DC and Marvel Comics artwork from legendary artists like Jack Kirby, John Romita, Gene Colan and more.

For that true superhero dad, the ToonSeum also has capes available for purchase.

The ToonSeum is open Sunday June 19th from 10am-3pm

Well there’s your gift idea since dads are always hard to buy for. You could even make him up a package with things that help make him your family’s Super Dad, along with a card that says your taking him out for the day. A walk through the Cultural District is always a nice day. And there are places to eat right around just about every corner. Just don’t make dad foot the bill!

Simply Put-Take your dad to Toonseum this Sunday and show him he’s your Superhero!
