INTRODUCING... inBraille™Greeting Cards
The Chicago Lighthouse is launching a new line of Braille greeting cards!
The cards, specially designed for The Chicago Lighthouse by a local artist and packaged by participants in the Lighthouse's Industries program, celebrate the unique beauty and meaning of Braille as both a language and an art form. The pattern of the contemporary art design on the cover of each card corresponds to the embossed Braille message included inside the card. Sales of inBraille™greeting cards support The Chicago Lighthouse's services to the blind and visually impaired, but the cards are intended to be read and enjoyed by everyone - those who can see and those who cannot
Below are cards that were available when originally posted, please check for current availability inBraille™
Included in package: Thinking of You, Happy Birthday, Congrats!, Thank You, Sympathy
