> vision loss displaying their artworks.  They had created their
> paintings in last month during two workshops, the first one was all
> about learning to use colors, various tactile material and execution
> on canvas.  During the second one, they got to create their paintings

> grand success.  There were over 130 visitors, both sighted and
> visually impaired who enjoyed the artworks. Local media came down to
> cover the event. I am happy that this event was able to spread
> awareness among the community about the abilities of visually impaired
> in a country like India where disability is still considered a stigma.
> I am sharing the description and Dropbox links to images of each
> painting  below.
