recent alumni) with visual disabilities to publish creative work that showcases their unique perspectives. Through a print journal dual-published in Braille and an accessible multimedia website, Exceptions aims to make the artistic work of students with visual
disabilities available to a diverse audience, providing a forum for creative exchange. Our publication highlights a variety of art forms, including fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and other media (music, film, visual and tactile arts, etc.).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

to your students and alumni. We would appreciate your circulation of the attached Call for Submissions among your students and encourage them to contribute to the journal, either by submitting creative work or by writing a guest post for our blog. We are accepting
submissions on a rolling basis from July 1st to October 1st, 2013.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
