A Sensory Dining Experience: Celebrating World Disability Day with Inclusion and Awareness
This World Disability Day, Saksham hosted a truly unique dining experience at The Arthouse Cafe, Connaught Place, where participants dined blindfolded and in a sensory-filled journey.
The event kicked off with blindfolded guests attempting to guess famous monuments by touch, offering a fun and eye-opening challenge.
From there, guests experienced the thrill of dining without sight, enhancing their understanding of the daily challenges faced by persons with visual impairments.
Highlights of the evening:
Braille menu cards added a whole new dimension to dining, allowing guests to “read” their meals with their fingers.
The event not only raised awareness but also supported Saksham’s mission to empower persons with visual impairments.
Creating change, one bite at a time.
A huge thank you to @thearthousecafeindia for hosting us and providing the delicious food that made this experience even more unforgettable!
Thank you to all who joined us in this journey toward a more inclusive world.
