The show features guitars suspended from the ceiling, paintings of musicians, and colorful acrylic-painted discs, alongside sculptural works that visitors can touch.Emma Peyton, Creative Growth’s access needs coordinator, said the organization has offered exhibition tours for the past three years, selecting artists whose work lends itself to tactile experiences. Peyton and Sam Dizon, a fellow through Stanford’s Institute for Diversity in the Arts, reportedly describe the works for blind and low-vision visitors during the tours.Among the pieces visitors could handle were a rainbow-painted ukulele by James “Jamie” Freid, along with Freid’s woodburned violin, painted discs, and sculptural snakes and eels. According to Oakland North, the exhibition’s centerpiece is a colorful wooden boombox created by John Mullins.Dizon hopes the organization can help change expectations around accessibility in the arts, which have historically been viewed as an “elitist space.”Related: SCRAP Creative Reuse Center Buys Building In SF’s Bayview Twice the Size of Old Space ...read more read less
