In-Person Verbal Description Tour: Made in Japan

June 15, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Free

Members of the low-vision and blind community are invited to this exciting, in-person Vibrant Verbal Description Tour at Poster House. This after-hours event will provide exclusive access to the museum’s hit exhibition, Made in Japan: 20th-Century Poster Art.

The tour will be led by Chief Curator Angelina Lippert, who has led our virtual description tours for the past two years. This intimate experience will allow guests to get up close with all the posters described, as well as provide additional tactile objects to help illuminate the art. Light refreshments will be provided.

While everyone is welcome, Poster House offers Vibrant Verbal Description Tours specifically for community members who are blind, have low vision, or who benefit from verbal descriptions.

Masks are encouraged during this event and are available free of charge at the museum. Clear masks are also available. Assistive listening devices, stools, and some tactile posters will be provided. If you have any further accessibility needs or require an alternative way to RSVP, please contact Poster House’s Accessibility Coordinator Sarit Cahana at access@posterhouse.org or at ‪(914) 295-2387‬. ​​

For other event-related questions, please contact info@posterhouse.org.
