Art Education for the Blind

Art Education for the Blind, in partnership with seven large metropolitan museums and five small museums, will develop multimodal interpretive programs, training, and audience development materials for visitors who are blind or visually impaired. The resources to be developed and tested through this project will include an initial accessibility survey; a focus group guide regarding audience needs; training scripts, guidelines, and examples on how to use touch, verbal/audio description, drama, movement, sound, and tactile diagrams; and an audience outreach tool.
