Here is how i hope you can help.
Is there an artwork you have always wanted to hear described, but never had the chance? VocalEye is seeking suggestions from the blind and partially sighted community for a described visual art tour. It could be anything from a famous masterpiece to a lesser-known work that you have a personal connection to. The suggestions we collect will form the basis of an Almost Live Zoom Virtual Tour later this year.
Submit your ideas to amy@vocaleye.ca.
Anyone who responds on or before February 24 will be entered into a prize draw for a $50 gift card
Here is an example of an Image descriptionof The Louvre, in Paris:
The large glass pyramid structure stands prominent in a courtyard –
the dark sky is illuminated by the crisp sparkling lights that bounce among the facets of the pyramid, like a diamond.
