Do your blind or visually impaired students love to sculpt, work with their hands, sing, dance, tell stories, create poems or even make visual art? Have you told them some variation of, “That’s really exciting, but what’s your career goal?” But you know that the arts is their career dream.

The arts, like any field for people with disabilities, can be a challenging but deeply satisfying career choice. On Friday evening, November 4, 2016, Learning Ally's College Success Program and several CSP mentors will host their first “Careers in the Arts” event, and we want you and your students to participate! Come learn from large group and individual candid discussions with artists both visually impaired and sighted who will share their experience and offer insights to careers for your students. Encourage your students to bring their questions! This event is appropriate for students ages 16 to 22. Register for the event here: https://www.learningally.org/Parents/Community/Events/itemId/1596
