The Dot Experience will be the first inclusive attraction in the world to make every exhibit, image, and artifact accessible to everyone—including people who may not be able to see them. To bring attention to the museum and APH's presence in Louisville, we were brought on to develop or assist with a series of events surrounding that opening on Tuesday.  These will bring together those in the community to engage with the organization and learn more about the museum and their "cast members", a diverse group of individuals who are blind or low vision and are making an impact in their communities and beyond. Events Surrounding the Museum's Opening:

• Sunday, October 25th from 6-8PM - Comedy Night at Mr. G’s on Shelbyville Road
• Monday, October 26th from 4:30-6:30PM - Cooking Demonstration by Chef Christine Ha (Limited to 50 people and will be at Bourbon Barrel Foods!)
• Monday, October 26th at 7PM - Dinner Series Across Louisville
  • Only 12 people will be in attendance at each. All dinners will be "hosted" by a Cast Member.
• Tuesday, October 27th from 6-10PM - Official Launch Party
• Wednesday, October 28th from 8:30-10AM - The Power of Advocacy Panel at the Muhammad Ali Center
