    The Dot Experience will be the first inclusive attraction in the world to make every exhibit, image, and artifact accessible to everyone—including people who may not be able to see them. To bring attention to the museum and APH's presence in Louisville, we were brought on to develop or assist with a series of events surrounding that opening on Tuesday.  These will bring together those in the community to engage with the organization and learn more about the museum and their "cast members", a diverse group of individuals who are blind or low vision and are making an impact in their communities and beyond. Events Surrounding the Museum's Opening:
    • Sunday, October 25th from 6-8PM - Comedy Night at Mr. G’s on Shelbyville Road
    • Monday, October 26th from 4:30-6:30PM - Cooking Demonstration by Chef Christine Ha (Limited to 50 people and will be at Bourbon Barrel Foods!)
    • Monday, October 26th at 7PM - Dinner Series Across Louisville
      • Only 12 people will be in attendance at each. All dinners will be "hosted" by a Cast Member.
    • Tuesday, October 27th from 6-10PM - Official Launch Party
    • Wednesday, October 28th from 8:30-10AM - The Power of Advocacy Panel at the Muhammad Ali Center

  • The Turf Mutt foundation helps pups find homes
    The TurfMutt Foundation Launches New Digital Series, Second Nature, Highlighting How Our Purposeful, Beautiful Green Spaces Transform Lives FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Louisville, Ky. – The TurfMutt Foundation, which champions the care and use of the green space around us, has launched a new digital series called Second Nature now streaming on YouTube. Produced in partnership with Louisville’s Chronicle Cinema, the series highlights the ways real-world, family yards, parks, and sports fields are purposeful outdoor spaces where families – and their pets – can thrive. Watch the new Second Nature series on TurfMutt’s web site or visit the TurfMutt YouTube channel.“We’re very excited to introduce Second Nature, to show how much well-designed green space can do for families and communities,” says Kris Kiser, President & CEO of the TurfMutt Foundation. “Our yards, parks, green schoolyards and more don’t just look good, they actively help us live better.”  Chronicle Cinema has been a long-term digital media partner of TurfMutt’s parent organization, the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI), and its award-winning international trade show Equip Exposition. “It was time to bring the TurfMutt mission of environmental stewardship to life through this inspiring digital format,” Kiser adds. The debut episode of Second Nature features homeowners Joe and Katie who sought to transform their mostly bare backyard, which also struggled with stormwater runoff and other landscaping challenges into a functional, living ecosystem for their household. The project addresses multiple needs: creating a quiet, sensory-friendly retreat for their daughter, Amelia; providing a safe green space for their dog, Meatloaf, to safely run and play; and establishing a welcoming outdoor living area where the family can gather with neighbors. “In this episode, we reimagine an underutilized yard with purpose, creating a beautiful and functional outdoor oasis designed around the specific needs of the Newland family,” explains Kiser. “It’s an inspirational and heartwarming story.”  To learn more about creating the yard of your dreams, visit TurfMutt.com.
