As Disability Pride Month begins today, we're highlighting our Feeling For Form program, which provides multisensory tours for people who are blind or have low vision. Launched over 30 years ago, these tours give participants the opportunity to explore select sculpture and furniture through touch, and experience art that may not be touched through verbal description, tactile graphics and other materials. Our Manager of Accessibility Jessica Doonan recently welcomed JoAnn Becker for a Feeling for Form tour in our Art of the Americas Wing, where the pair explored works by John Wilson, Arthur Dove and William Wetmore Story. ➡️ The MFA strives to create paths to access for all members of our community with disabilities or health challenges.
