About this Event
What does it feel like to have a learning disability or disorder?
In this workshop, join Ana (Tobin) Farnham, Assistant Professor of Graphic Design at George Mason University and Multimedia Freelance Designer, and Erin Kelly, Enoch Pratt Free Library's Accessibility Coordinator, in exploring how experiential graphic design can be used to promote empathy for and awareness of learning disabilities and disorders. Attendees will have the opportunity to try out samples of testing used for identifying learning disabilities, learn about learning differences, and interact with several simulations that allow participants to experience what it feels like to have a learning difference. The workshop will conclude with resources on where to learn more about neurodivergence and resources on how to better support those who are neurodivergent.
