Volunteer Call

Hi all! 

I am looking for at least 8 volunteers to help guide the visually impaired throughout my fine art exhibition on Friday, March 27th 2015 from 6 p.m. – 8 p.m. You will be needed for 3 hours. In return I will gladly offer a portrait sitting for you to update your LinkedIn port etc.
The visually impaired community as well as the sighted and invited to join in a unique art experience designed for those with limited sight. Please join me the night of the opening reception. Children are welcomed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Invisible to Others is an art exhibition that I have created as a part of my Graduate Masters of Fine Arts degree in Photography. This exhibition will be shown at Savannah College of Arts and Design, Atlanta at the Trois Gallery.
Invisible to Others focuses on the limitations of the medium of photography as it communicates to the visually impaired, a group that has been traditionally excluded from the fine art gallery. In examining the visually impaired community her work addresses universal humanity, while creating new inclusive ways in which works of art can be presented and experienced through secondary senses as well as sight. The exhibition incorporates portraits, alternative processes, and soundscapes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is important to have guides in this space to accommodate the visually impaired who are interested in joining this gallery experience. I have created this hands on art work about and for the visually impaired.

Here is a link to how easy it is to help guide those who request it:http://youtu.be/dnTRtWDFz84
