In its own words
Your Eyes My Vision Project During this fiscal year we enacted a grant that we had received the previous year for a program called Your Eyes My Vision. 15 blind artists in BC with the help of 15 assistants under the direction of a program coordinator created original works of visual art including glass work sculpture weaving paintings soundscapes and more. Widely publicized with interviews and videos of the project the final described 'show' took place online through the VocalEye organization in Vancouver. We also held an in-person show in February of 2023.
