Since the first lockdown in March 2020 with many theatres going dark and many museums, galleries and heritage sites having to close their doors, VocalEyes, the national audio description charity providing access to the arts for blind and partially sighted people, started up a weekly email newsletter titled 'The Interval' to share up-coming online accessible events for blind and partially sighted people.

 

In this week’s VocalEyes - The Interval here on RNIB Connect Radio Toby Davey is joined again by Jess Beal from VocalEyes to highlight a number of online accessible arts events from the VocalEyes weekly email newsletter The Interval.

National Paralympic Heritage Trust :  Life and work of Dr Guttmann - audio described tour,

National Gallery:  Orazio Gentileschi: The finding of Moses - Art Through Words described session
