BRAILLE INSTITUTE FREE ONLINE WORKSHOPS – FEBRUARY 2022

Braille Institute is a non-profit organization whose mission is to positively transform the lives of those with vision loss. We offer a broad range of free programs, classes and services serving thousands of students of all ages helping to demonstrate that vision rehabilitation is a beginning, not an end.

We serve the community from seven centers, and hundreds of community outreach locations throughout Southern California, and lead popular national programs like Braille Challenge and Cane Quest. Our staff and volunteers understand losing your vision can be scary, but we believe it is not the end of independence, but a new way of living.

A variety of free classes, workshops and support groups are available to help you or a loved one stay active, remain independent and enjoy connections with others.

Sign up for individual events, workshops and seminars – free and open to everyone. Register online or call our Educational Programs Manager, Tracy Alfino, at (805) 898-8312 Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:00pm.

Family 1st Thursday

Bring the whole family to enjoy Teaching Artist-led activities in the Museum’s Family Resource Center.

In February, sketch dragons in motion along with decorative cloud and water elements onto a line drawing of a vase. Finish with a watercolor wash in vivid hues as you draw inspiration from a 19th-century Korean-painted porcelain vase on view in the Asian Art galleries. Afterward, enjoy the galleries until 8 pm.
