10:00 am: Knitting10:00 am: Knitting – Every week, our knitters gather to share their purls of wisdom and get in the loop on each other’s latest project, and usually end up in stitches spinning yarns. Whether you knit for pleasure, distraction or just practical economics, or you’ve never done it before and want to give it a try, there’s always room for another loom. Learn, refine, or teach a skill that makes your gift-giving budget lighter weight or support a student-led altruistic project like knitting chemo caps, beanies for babies, lap blankets or other creative applications. For more info, needle Adult Program Coordinator Serena Olsen at solsen@lighthouse-sf.org or 415-694-7316. |

Whether you are drifting off to a beloved story from childhood, studying a new and fascinating subject, keeping up with the latest political news or on the edge of your seat while trying to determine “Whodunit,” books and reading free you to explore whole new realities. In the past, Blind people have found that their options for accessing books, newspapers and magazines were quite limited. However, recently our options have increased exponentially, and now offer us much greater access to the entire Rainbow of Reading materials. Join us from 1:00-4:00 p.m. on May 30th at the LightHouse Headquarters to explore your options. We will discuss both accessible mainstream content, as well as options from long-time providers of books to the blind and print disabled. Following the discussion, we will be available to assist you in accessing the services that suit your needs. Topics will include: The workshop is open to all, but an RSVP is required. To RSVP email ahogan@lighthouse-sf.org or call 415-694-7343. This class is free to participants through support from the City of San Francisco’s SF Connected program. |
