Have you heard of us? 

 

Can I tell you a little bit about us, I can do it in under a minute? 

 

Did you know that the unemployment rate amongst people who are blind is 75 percent? 

 

At our core, we believe that with the right tools, a person who is blind is able to do nearly any job a sighted person can do. 

 

blindDANCE Film Festival provides training and a platform for normalizing success amongst people who are blind through storytelling and film. 

 

We are partnered with the Sedona International Film Festival and the American Foundation for the Blind to inspire filmmaking in the blindness community and grow an audience world wide for our films. 

 

You can support us simply by donating $10 and receive a ticket to our online festival as a thank you gift. Tickets to our in person premiers are also available for $25. Which would you prefer?
