Accessibility-first museum opens in Louisville

Operates The Dot Experience

The Dot Experience opened Oct. 30 in Louisville, Kentucky, with a rule that reverses most museum etiquette: visitors are encouraged to touch the exhibits. The 28,000-square-foot museum, run by the American Printing House for the Blind, cost $22 million and is built so every image, artifact and display can be experienced through touch, sound, braille or visual description.
