[Art_beyond_sight_advocacy] Introduction

[Roanna Bacchus]

Dear Members,

My name is Roanna Bacchus and I am totally blind. I was born in the Winter of nineteen ninety in Boston, Massachusets. As a toddler, I attended the Early Intervention program at the Perkins School For The Blind. Two years ago I graduated from the University of Central Florida with my Bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. My areas of concentration were Arts and Humanities and Behavioral and Social Sciences. I also have a minor in Mass Communications and an Associate of Arts degree in General Studies from Seminole State College. I joined this list to learn more about advocating to make art and museums more accessible to blind individuals. I am passionate about making sure that all blind children and adults receive their materials in an accessible format.
