The Vancouver Aquarium will be celebrating accessibility on Saturday June 7. I have included a little bit of information about the event, a link to our website and an electronic poster that can be printed and posted on a community board.
We will have all of our usual accessible services offered and the following additions:
- American Sign Language interpreters will be at all of our marine mammal and dive shows.
- The Wet Lab will be open every hour so guests can experience our aquatic world through touch
- Extra volunteers will be onsite to interact with guests and showcase a variety of props in the galleries
- Visitors who are blind or have low vision can also pre-book descriptive tours
For more details, you can visit our website at the following link:http://www.vanaqua.org/experience/events/annual-and-upcoming-events/celebrate-accessibility
I hope you can spread the word about this great event in your community. Please feel free to email myself or Ninon Daubigeon, Manager of Visitor Experience atNinon.daugbigeon@vanaqua.org  if you have any questions.
