Dimensions: Tactile Graphics Open House

Saturday April 23

1:30 - 3 PM Eastern

Andrew Heiskell Braille and Talking Book Library

40 West 20th St | New York, NY 10011

Through our Dimensions Project, New Yorkers of all abilities can explore
and create Braille materials, tactile graphics and 3D models. Join us for a
hands-on introduction to tactile maps, high-contrast tactile swellform
graphics, 3D models and the Graphiti, an interactive tactile drawing
tablet. Try your hand at accessible drawing, learn about downloading TMAP
tactile street maps on demand, and network with other community members who
want to harness the extraordinary power of Braille and tactile graphics to
make art, maps, graphs and images more accessible.

Everyone is welcome! No experience is expected - come as you are. Please
RSVP to: ChanceyFleet at nypl.org
