Gallery Night
Artwork by Wisconsinites who are blind or visually impaired
Friday, October 1, 2021
6:00 – 7:30 p.m.
Since the Council’s first Gallery Night event in 2011, we take the opportunity to exhibit art created by artists who are blind or visually impaired. Plans for 2021 are under consideration. In 2020, fourteen artists ranging in age and artform participated. You can watch the virtual Gallery Night reception on YouTube at the link below.
Due to COVID-19, a virtual exhibit was created. Most artwork is available for purchase, with 20% of the proceeds going to the Council and 80% going to the artist.

“I believe my visual impairment modifies my art. Our job as artists is to take a feeling or experience and share that with the world in a creative way. My visual impairment gives me a unique perspective to share, and I’m glad people who came to Gallery Night at the Council got to share in that experience.”
