    Virtual Tours @Legion of Honor: Works in Three Dimensions
    Thursday, November 12, 1:30-2:30 PM PST
    The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco is continuing their series of highly descriptive Zoom tours led by docent Jim Kohn. Jim is extraordinarily articulate and has significant experience describing art for the blind and low vision community.

    Jim reports that we will be reviewing some notable and very interesting pieces of ceramics and sculpture from the permanent collection at the Legion of Honor Museum. We’ll encounter ceramics from Ancient Greece and Rome, then move on to famous marble sculptures from the Renaissance and 18th century, and conclude with several bronze sculptures by Auguste Rodin, whose work is at the heart of the Legion collection, including “The Thinker,” “The Kiss,” and “The Burghers of Calais. There will be time for your questions and comments following the tour. For Zoom access info, RSVP to Adult Program Manager Serena Olsen at solsen@lighthouse-sf.org or 415-694-7316.

    Better Market Street Project Update (online)

    Better Market Street Project Update (online)


    Nov 12

    The LightHouse is pleased to present an update via Zoom on the Better Market Street project, which has undergone some changes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Join us at 4:00 pm Pacific on Thursday, November 12, to learn about the changes from representatives of San Francisco Public Works and the SFMTA.

    Notable developments include:

    • Removal of the sidewalk level bikeway
    • All transit vehicles will use the Muni-only center lanes and there won’t be any curbside stops
    • People biking will share the curb lane with taxis, paratransit, and commercial vehicles.

    These changes mean that the sidewalks will only be for people walking and transit passengers no longer have to cross the bikeway to get to the sidewalk. Transit passengers will get to and from the center boarding islands at signalized crossings.

    Each of these issues will be discussed in further detail. We hope you can join us. RSVP to Scott Blanks: SBlanks@lighthouse-sf.org.

    Lost In Space: An O&M Instructor’s Guide to Teaching Spatial Skills

    Lost In Space: An O&M Instructor’s Guide to Teaching Spatial Skills


    Nov 18

    Remote O&M instruction is a challenge. By now, most teachers have discovered that some content areas lend themselves better to distance instruction than other areas. One of the most useful topics that can be taught remotely is orientation, referring not to route learning but to overall spatial development. We learned as part of our university programs that cardinal directions and landmark selection are important, but why (and exactly how critical are they)? Why do some students excel at independent exploration while others struggle to follow a simple route? In this free 2-hour Zoom presentation, you’ll learn about mental rotation and frame of reference, which together form the foundation of strong spatial awareness; learn how to quickly assess your students’ relative strengths and weaknesses in each area; and learn which O&M skills contribute to each area. We’ll discuss teaching strategies and exercises that help develop individual skills and strengthen the overall foundation, discuss what kind of technological setups work well for remote spatial awareness lessons and why, and review the role that both simple and complex tactile graphics can play in the instruction process.

    Lighthouse is partnering with the Northern Chapter of the California Association of Orientation and Mobility Specialists (N-CAOMS) in order to make ACVREP CEUs available to participants.  2 ACVREP Credits will be provided at no charge for current CAOMS members, and at $30 for non-CAOMS members.

    Participants interested in CEUs for this webinar should complete the CAOMS ACVREP CEU Registration Form via: https://forms.gle/MFaCATv2XimhGyuQA

    RSVP for the class by November 16.

    N-CAOMS membership is only $30 annually and is open to professionals across the nation.  To learn more about N-CAOMS Membership:
