Add lights, reflectors, reflective tape, sparkly jewels, and other glowing things to your mobility gear, for fun and safety! If you have a wheelchair, scooter, walker, rollator, cane, or even a bike or stroller, and you’d like to bling it up, come by the San Francisco Disability Cultural Center, 165 Grove St. in the afternoon on Wednesday, October 29th, 1pm – 3pm.
You can help us out a lot by registering here: https://disabilityculturalcenter.org/event/been-seen-on-halloween/
We will have LED light strips, portable battery packs, reflective tape, glow in the dark paint pens, and other supplies.
Vincent Lopez from the ILRCSF will be there as well; he runs their wheelchair repair program and was co-host last year for GOAT’s Be Seen workshop. He can be available to consult for questions about repair and maintenance during the workshop as well!
If you can’t make it, and you’d like to get some of our useful lights or individual help, let us know and we can likely work something out — email to liz@openassistivetech.org.
Visiting the DCC:
Civic Center BART, Van Ness Muni station, or any of the many and frequent buses are a great way to get to the Civic Center area. The closest parking garage is at 360 Grove St. between Gough and Franklin.
