If you missed Liz Doles' Open Door Gallery Sri Lanka exhibit, you can now hear all about it.
This summer we launched our volunteer Audio Describer program with two enthusiastic volunteers, Hannah Schenk and Adrienne Wetmore. After taking an online course on Audio Description, Hannah and Adrienne created an Audio Described tour of Sri Lanka: Pinhole Photography and Portraits that is now available on our website for all to enjoy.
The Audio Description provides access to visitors who are blind or have low vision by describing the Open Door Gallery and each piece in the exhibition. Even though the tour is designed to provide access to visitors with limited vision, sighted visitors might be surprised by how much more they see with an audio describer's guidance.
