Louis On Tour



Throughout 2009, we are taking Louis on the road! National Braille Press has 
produced a 20-panel traveling display, in print and braille, that takes a 
viewer through the highlights of Louis's life, the braille production 
process, and why braille remains important today.



The Louis Braille Bicentennial Traveling Exhibit is booked in cities across 
the country, starting December 2008 (see the tour schedule below).
