The Blind and Low Vision Education Network NZ (BLENNZ) is a school that is made up of a national network of educational services for children and young people who are blind, deafblind or have low vision in New Zealand. It was wonderful to have this group visit our tapestry and help them to enjoy the weaving experience despite the fact they were sight-impaired or couldn't see at all.
Ngarangi had a go at weaving
with Naoko on hand to assist.
Alanya, with the assistance of Elly
Emil had a go on one of the mini-looms.
Natalie is completely blind.
Elly guided Rachel's hands so she

It was very humbling to observe.

Thank you for the priviledge of meeting and encouraging you
to have a go at weaving and adding your stitches to the tapestry.
You are an important part of the community
and we appreciated your visit!
