[Nfbv-announce] Blind Parents: Assistance with a Community Art Project

[Sarah Patnaude]

Hello Everyone! 




Random request ahead. 




A few of you know that I am about to graduate with my MSW in just a few short weeks. Woot woot! For my Art Therapy class, I have to do a community art project. Why not use this opportunity as an advocacy and education tool? My plan is to create a collage of photos of blind parents to post on social media to promote the rights of blind parents. 




This is where I need your help. If you are a blind parent and you feel comfortable, I would absolutely love if you would send me a photo or two of you and your child(ren). Some sort of action photo rather than a staged portrait would be best, but the sky is the limit. Photos do not have to be of younger children. If you have photos of you doing something with your teenager, I welcome those as well. My hope is simply to show blind parents parenting. 




If you can send photos to me by April 19th, that would be awesome! 




If you have questions, feel free to reach out.
