PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Calling all babies, kids and proud parents -- super tot stardom may be no farther away than a trip to the Gap! Today, Gap announced that it will be hosting Casting Call photo-ops on Friday, Oct. 17, at its Lenox Square GapKids store from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on Saturday, Oct. 18, at its North Point Mall GapKids store from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Children, 10-years-old and younger, will have the opportunity to participate in a free photo shoot with a professional photographer on a first-come, first-serve basis. After their child's moment in the spotlight, each parent will receive a card with directions to retrieve his or her child's photo online and can then submit their favorite photo to the Gap Casting Call search Website at gap.com/castingcall.
"Casting Call is an event that we really look forward to every year -- it's an opportunity for us to meet and interact with our customers and their children in a unique and exciting way," said Pam Wallack, president of babyGap, GapKids and GapMaternity. "This is the first time we're doing the photo-op events in select stores. By adding in these events to the Casting Call experience, we hope to give even more children a chance to participate in the contest by helping them with the first step -- taking a great photo that really expresses who they are!"
More than 40 photo-op events are being held at babyGap and GapKids stores across the nation. A complete list of photo-op events is available online at gap.com/castingcall.
