Freedom of Expression
September 19, 2009 to January 10, 2010

Featured in the Back Gallery - The Back Gallery exhibit changes several times a year

As Americans one of our most important rights is the Freedom of Expression. The Thomas Jefferson Center for the Protection of Free Expression and the Virginia Discovery Museum have teamed up to bring you a hands-on exhibition that teaches about this important right. Come learn about the history of free expression in America and how the media has had an important role. Use your right to express yourself through music or on your own television show.

As part of the exhibit, you can experience how Braille and Sign Language are used as a means of free expression and communication.

We are very pleased and honored that our new children’s book, Meet Me At The Mountain is featured in this special exhibit at the Virginia Discovery Museum.

MMATM highlights how persons with differing abilities often do amazing things to overcome life’s challenges.

MMATM is unique because it highlights the abilities of six individuals each with different special needs – Blind, Deaf, Amputee, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Cerebral Palsy (CP) and Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) - paraplegic . Moreover, it is produced in four different formats:
1. DVD -an interactive music version

3. Illustrated – Print version
