The St. Louis Blues and MindsEye Bring Accessibility to the Blind
Saint Louis, Missouri, Feb. 27, 2019
The St. Louis Blues and MindsEye Bring Accessibility to the Blind and Visually Impaired!
St. Louis Blues Center Tyler Bozak broke a scoreless tie against the Nashville Predators with only seven minutes left on the clock with Defenseman Alex Pietrangelo adding an empty-netter on the power play with only four seconds remaining, bringing the Blues a victory of 2-0 on Tuesday night.
It was a thrilling game for everyone in attendance at the Enterprise Center in Saint Louis, but especially so for a group of blind and visually-impaired kids. MindsEye brought Audio Description to a Saint Louis Blues game for the first time, creating a fully accessible experience for some super fans from Delta Gamma Center for Children with Visual Impairments and Variety-the Children's Charity of St. Louis.

MindsEye’s 16th Annual Soirée pour la Vue
MindsEye’s 16th Annual Soirée pour la Vue
The Palladium Saint Louis dazzled in Mardi Gras flair on February 22, 2019. The Original Knights of Swing Big Band enchanted ears and Butler’s Pantry tantalized taste buds, as the crowd of over 200 gathered to Laissez les bons temps rouler and celebrate MindsEye's mission to translate vision into audio for those in our area who are blind and visually impaired. It was a delightful night of celebration. We honoured former MindsEye Board Chair Lori Winter and Ed Brown of Brown & Brown Attorneys at Law with the Father Wittenbrink, OMI Visionary Award. The auction items were thrilling, and the friendship and laughter of supporters and volunteers made the evening a true joy.
