Come see our Living by the Eye Exhibit!

Living by the Eye

Flashing lights, vibrators, strobes, captions, and video communications . . . all these are on display in our new deaf environment exhibit. Thanks to funding provided by the Johnson County Board of County Commissioners and Heritage Trust Fund, you can visit the accessible studio apartment of a young deaf woman who is benefiting from the technological advances of the past two decades. Access to visual communications and alerting systems supports an independent life style.

And exhibits are “hands-on”. You can activate the lights, lie on the bed and feel the vibrator, and try out the videophone. Stop by and experience “visual living”.  Become knowledgeable about technologies you may want to incorporate in your own home. This exhibit was developed by ESA Design (Ed and Linda Scheele), with interior design by Interiors by Design (Karen Mills).
