Creating Adventures for ALL Ages
We recognize the dire need for inclusive activities and adventures for the BVI community on the North side of Houston. We will be planning a host of accessible activities that will include trips to the movies, bowling, live theater, art workshops, and maybe even a Casino Trip or a Cruise!
In addition, we would also like to bring some family events to the north side, such as an accessible rodeo-themed event with a mechanical bull, a Peep-N-Seek Auditory Egg Hunt, and an accessible Casino Night!
Be sure to watch our "Meetings and Events" page for our Adventures!

We continue on our never-ending quest for accessible art venues for our art enthusiasts. Unfortunately, in the vast cultural city of Houston, tactile art exhibits cannot be found! We will continue participating in as many events as we can find, so that everyone will see that even the visually impaired love to experience art! So far, we have been featured on ABC Channel 13 for our participation in the Houston Art Car Parade, participated in the Houston White Cane Day celebration, participated in the HAVIN Expo, and have been featured in TSBVI TX Sensbilites newsletters in both the Summer 2018 and Summer 2019 editions. Who knows! Maybe one day we will open our own tactile gallery! We dare to dream for our "Hands to See Gallery!"!

My name is Katherine Trimm, and I am a Teacher of Students With Visual Impairments (CTVI). Over the years, I have had so many students who love art, but do not usually have the opportunity to express themselves creatively! Linda Brown, a Braillist, and I decided that it was time for a change! Together we researched artistic opportunities for our students to no avail! We resolved that our students could become the tactile artists that we could not find! With the help of some wonderful people, we saw our vision come alive!
