<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Last month at the American Alliance of Museums annual meeting in New
Orleans, the National Federation of the Blind (<A
href="https://www.nfb.org/our-community/educators)">https://www.nfb.org/our-community/educators)</A>
and its partner, 3DPhotoWorks (<A
href="https://3dphotoworks.com)">https://3dphotoworks.com)</A> , offered
practical advice on how museums can better serve blind and low-vision
visitors
with tactile and audio experiences.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>3DPhotoWorks co-founder John Olson, Anil Lewis, executive director of
the
National Federation of the Blind, and Carrie Christoffersen, executive
director
and curator of the Newseum, spoke about creating multisensory exhibits on an
inclusion and accessibility-themed panel moderated by experience design
expert
Corey Timpson (<A
href="https://coreytimpson.com/)">https://coreytimpson.com/)</A> . The
Newseum
in 2018 became the first U.S. museum to host a major tactile and audio
photography exhibit with “The Marines and Tet: The Battle that Changed the
Vietnam War. (<A
