Join us for a touchable and creative art experience for visually impaired parents and their children led by artist Mitzie Jokich and DAG's Accessibility Consultant Parrice Leach! Our Found Object Art Workshop invites you to create a piece of artwork through a hands-on exploration of found objects assemblage. With child-friendly and accessible classroom practices, every member of the family can participate fully in the creative process.. Together, we'll transform recycled and saved objects into a one-of-a-kind, touchable artwork, fostering connection, creativity, and joy for all.

We are committed to ensuring that all individuals have equal access to the arts.
