PLYMOUTH CENTER FOR THE ARTS: A Different Vision 2013: A Tactile Art Show
  Many people react with an expression of polite confusion when they 
hear about an art exhibit for people who cannot see.

Yet the call for art has gone out to both sighted and non-sighted 
artists all over the commonwealth -- to local high schools, art schools, 
schools for the blind, craft schools, art associations, councils on 
aging, veterans' programs, colleges, galleries, academies, museums and 
to 1,300 individual artists.

We're looking for art that can be touched.

We're looking for sculpture and pottery and weaving and paintings with 
texture.

We're looking for art that smells and art that makes sounds and music.

At the Plymouth Center for the Arts, the Plymouth Guild is hosting a 
show for everyone -- for blind, partially sighted and sighted artists 
and visitors.

.....

Go to the show and /see/ for yourself. And, please, touch the art!

Register your artwork from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, April 27 
and 28, at Plymouth Center for the Arts.

The Opening Night Reception will be held at 7 p.m. Saturday, May 11, and 
the exhibit will run from May 12 to June 1. Regular Center hours will be 
extended till 8 each Thursday and Friday evening during the entire run 
of this show.
