White Cane Day

Close Your Eyes for White Cane Day

Celebrate White Cane Day with us!

In honor of National White Cane Day, join us for our annual Close Your Eyes events:

Wednesday, 10/12 @ 10
Leesburg Library

Thursday, 10/13 @ 10
Clermont City Center

Friday, 10/14 @ 10
Lake Sumter Landing, The Villages

By attending, you will:

  • Experience challenges of vision loss (and how those challenges can be overcome) by participating in interactive activities. If attending in person, you’ll be walking around downtown so bring a friend and wear comfy shoes!
  • Show your support for the full participation of blind Americans in our community.

 

Also known as Blind Americans Equality Day…

Every year since 1964, October 15 has been deemed National White Cane Safety day. In more recent years, the phrase “Blind Americans Equality Day” has been adopted. Whatever the title, the goal is the same: ensure and champion the full participation of blind Americans in every facet of our society, every day.
