In celebration of Helen Keller's birthday, I wanted to write about the Helen Keller International Art Show, which is sponsored by the Council for Exceptional Children Division on Visual Impairments and the University of Alabama at Birmingham Vision Science Research Center and School of Education. The Alabama Deafblind Project claims it "was established in 1983 as a cooperative project between agencies serving children with visual impairments." The emphasis is on creativity and tactile mediums-- and the results are interesting in their diversity and assumed therapy. The winning pieces go on to travel around galleries in Alabama.
