There are three components to The Blind Cafe Experience:
A Social Dinner Experience In The Dark
What's on the menu? A vegan & gluten-free special mystery dinner, sourced locally whenever possible. We offer a dark chocolate social reception before going into the dark. In the dark, you will break bread with strangers and good friends alike, share inspiring stories and meaningful conversation, and experience live music… all experienced 100% in the dark! We source local ingredients as much as possible from local farmer’s markets.. designing the menu based on the season and the availability of donations from the community.
A Discussion In The Dark
In our award-winning community awareness discussion, you will participate in a group discussion/Q & A, between the audience (you) and our amazing warm heart-felt legally Blind Ambassadors. They will share their personal stories with you and you will have the opportunity to share what is coming up for you personally, ask questions, and discuss blindness.
A Music Performance In The Dark
Ever wonder what it like to experience a live music performance in complete pitch darkness? Blind Cafe Music Productions brings an emotionally powerful music listening experience. These unique and intimate performances bridge the gap between the artist and their audience as they're empowered to participate in an active music listening experience, in the complete and total darkness! Learn what it was like to experience live music without the distraction of your visual conditioning, social etiquette, or cells phones.
