Take this quick Poll.   It has amazing people places and things to pick from, maybe if we all vote we could get them to bring this to Crystal Bridges!

> As a fun way to kick off this initiative, please take this very short poll <https://www.nfb.org/libraries/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=19682&qid=4761992> that asks about celebrities, historic events, and famous landmarks that you might like to see represented as 3D tactile images. You can choose from the list or add your own! Your input will be used to guide the creation of exhibitions featuring 3D tactile artworks that also incorporate audio description, and even unique smells, to help blind people create mental pictures of our world.
