Meet Real-Life Superheroes: The Fashion Extravaganza Transforming Ordinary People into Legends!

Are you ready to witness the most inspiring event of the year? 25 incredible individuals are set to become real-life superheroes at the sensational fashion extravaganza, This Is Me! Taking place on December 15 at 5 p.m. at the Sloan Museum of Discovery, this isn't just any fashion show—it's a movement that's been growing for six years, and this time, it's superhero-themed!

Tracy Palmer, the visionary behind This Is Me, shares her electrifying vision: “We believe these participants are the true superheroes. They’ll don their hero costumes, declaring, ‘I’m free. I can do anything!’ Their strength and resilience have transformed their families, showing exactly what it means to defy the odds!”

And the stories don't stop there. Meet 7-year-old John Fuller, who’s rocking the runway for the third time. Diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder at just 3, John has found a supportive village with This Is Me, melting hearts everywhere with his dad’s tearful revelations about how this event has changed their lives. “Feeling understood and supported—it’s a game changer!” says Pastor Uriah Fuller.

This year, the show holds a special tribute to a young hero, a 14-year-old named Hunter, who tragically passed in a fire this past March. Honoring his memory, his family will participate in this meaningful tribute, with special acknowledgments throughout the event. Expect some vital tips and insights on ensuring safety for those with special needs in emergency situations—because awareness is a superpower too!

Here's how it all began: the event sprang to life when a bold suggestion from a parent sparked an idea in Palmer's heart—and the rest? Pure magic! This show isn’t just a one-time gig; it’s a yearly celebration of empowerment and freedom. Palmer’s commitment to providing a space where participants and their families can just be themselves is nothing short of miraculous.
