7:00 pm: EHC Virtual Campfire (online)


Oct 2

Imagine the warmth of a crackling campfire, the sound of laughter, and the joy of shared stories—all from the comfort of your own home! At the EHC Virtual Campfire, happening on the first Wednesday of every month from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm, we’re keeping the camp spirit alive and well.

Every month, we kick things off with exciting updates on our camp programs and facilities—what’s new, what’s on the horizon, and all the inside scoop! Then, we open the floor for everyone, from alumni to first-timers, to check in, share what’s on their minds, and connect with each other. It’s your chance to catch up with old friends or make new ones in our ever-growing camp family. And what’s a campfire without music? Expect some familiar camp songs, surprise musical performances, and maybe even a special guest or two. You never know what magic the night will bring! Some months we’ll go the extra mile with holiday celebrations, surprise announcements from LightHouse, or other exciting resources that’ll keep you coming back for more.

So grab your marshmallows, settle in, and RSVP to join us for an evening of fun, friendship, and campfire vibes. To sign up and get the zoom link for our monthly gathering please RSVP with Jamey Gump at JGump@lighthouse-sf.org or 415-694-7372.

1:00 pm: Discover the Monarch: Braille & Tactile Graphics Display (in-person)


Oct 9

LightHouse San Francisco, 1155 Market St., San Francisco

Get ready for an exciting hands-on experience with the Monarch, the groundbreaking multi-line Braille and tactile graphics display! Developed through a collaboration between the American Printing House for the Blind and Humanware, the Monarch is the first device to offer both detailed tactile graphics and formatted Braille on a single device. Join us at the LightHouse for the Blind as we dive into the future of accessible technology! You’ll be among the first to explore this revolutionary innovation, which lets you access thousands of pre-made tactile graphics and eBooks, and even graph mathematical equations with ease. You will learn how to navigate and orient yourself to the display, gain an introductory understanding of the Monarch’s capabilities, and learn how to access and explore a tactile graphic.

This exclusive training, hosted by the LightHouse For the Blind in partnership with the Talking Books and Braille Center (TBBC), is designed for patrons with some Braille knowledge and prior experience with Braille displays. We hope that you will take part in this exciting metamorphosis occurring in the Braille technology landscape.

Ready to reserve your spot? Space is limited to six people due to the hands-on nature of this training, so get in touch with us right away. RSVP to Gabe Griffith at GGriffith@lighthouse-sf.org OR 415-694-7680. We can't wait to see you there!
