features the work of 18 artists from the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond.

anxiety, through practices of mending, healing, restoration, belonging,
sustainability, and resiliency. This tour will include customized
accessibility including verbal descriptions, braille, and tactile to
immerse students into the beauty of the art. This is a great opportunity

experienced throughout the pandemic.

*Youth of Tomorrow: A Day in the Life of A **Senior Accessible Media and
Braille Specialist Media and Accessible Design Laboratory*

Summer time is approaching and that means travel and summer job season is
in full swing! Let’s learn about the different transit options the Bay Area
has to offer from Frank Welte. He will also discuss his career path and
what led him to this hand-on career at Lighthouse for the Blind in San
Francisco. This month’s A Day in the Life, Frank will inform young adults
about the free tactile map program at Lighthouse for the Blind in San
Francisco. He will also discuss the in’s and outs of what skills and
training are needed to become a Senior Accessible Media and Braille
Specialist Media and Accessible Design Laboratory. Frank is also a seasoned
volunteer and supporter of events in the community! Come join us for a
lively discussion about the importance of transportation, tactile maps and
the joy of independence that it brings to everyone’s life. If you’re
interested in technology and tactile maps, you won’t want to miss this
workshop!

Who: Transition Aged Youth with vision loss ages 14-24
