7:00 pm: College Spaces From Different Places


Dec 7

College Spaces From Different Places: Anniversary Celebration!

When: Tuesday December 7, 2021 from 7:00 – 8:30 PM

When virtual learning began, many students found themselves missing much of the college experience, and searched for new and innovative ways to find that community and connection. College Spaces, with the guidance and leadership of student ambassadors, was created to be that missing link during these times, and has featured meetings on a variety of college topics, brought new and old friends together, and provided a special place for blind and low-vision college students to socialize and have fun. As the year anniversary of our first gathering approaches, the College Spaces team wants to invite everyone to an evening of celebrating everything you all have accomplished and learned in the past 12 months. Join us for an evening of games, reflection, and looking toward the future.

With questions or to RSVP contact Daisy at dsoto@lighthouse-sf.org or call 415-694-7328. Please RSVP by Friday, December 3 to receive the Zoom link.

5:00 pm: Midweek Meditation and Movement


Dec 8

Between class obligations, the additional hours of homework, and many other responsibilities students have in their lives it becomes clear that a stretch break might be a good addition to the week. To help students structure a break this into their busy week the LightHouse Youth Program is starting a Midweek Meditation and Movement series. Each week our class leader, Ellie Kneer will lead us in activities that will help us feel a little more grounded through activities such as yoga, meditation, and other mindfulness exercises. Activities will be geared for all experience levels and will soon be your mid-week escape with your blind and low vision friends.

Who: All students 24 years of age and younger
What: Weekly virtual gathering of blind and low vision students to participate in yoga, meditation, and mindfulness activities
When: Wednesday afternoons from 5:00 to 6:00 pm (November 3rd, 10th, and 17th)
